Suspending a car for a dashboard warning light is hardly hold-the-front-page news.

But can't recall photos of the likes of this being posted. Makes a change from sticky tape, I suppose :lol:

Anything blocking the instruments on a dashboard is immediately suspicious. This evening, LCC Licensing Officers found a Knowsley PHV with an engine management light deliberately obscured. The PHV licence was suspended following the discovery.

Be interested to see the licensing condition that says vehicles must never have a warning light on their dash.

Still, at least it gave the officer a hard-on when he suspended the driver for that. :sad:

That's another thing that I meant to ask on here, because that's another plate-off thing here in Fife.

Which to me seems a tad over the top. It's probably just a slight problem with emissions, or whatever.

But I think that's an automatic MoT failure these days, so that's probably why they remove the plate :roll:
