The latest changes to the mot test criteria are in their infancy at the moment, we will need to see after some time and experience what types of defects should really be considered as marked dangerous, some of which DVSA point out as such but the evidence suggests differently at the moment, so provided feedback is given at the meetings I’m sure over time changes will take place and make the standards fair.
I think you will always see testers with personal opinions, and yes I agree they should not have them during the test criteria, and DVSA actually don’t care for a testers personal opinion either, yet many people don’t agree with DVSA and their standards either, so we are not in a perfect world, but at the moment its the best we have, and we’ll just have to make do at this time.
