It’s always been a case that a fail is deemed a vehicle unfit for road use however it’s generally accepted by insurers that you can return your car from the MOT and to a single place of repair. This new wording is in danger of being used as a scare tactic on customers not to drive away forcing the work to be carried out at the MOT centre. Assuming the defect isn’t deemed “dangerous” the customer is not committing an offence but I can see the wording being “milked” by the less honest and many owners being forced to pay for marked up repairs, not with a mechanic of their choice as a result.
