So we test vehicles to make sure they meet a minimum standard , yes I can see the reason behind this assesment but it puts testers in a very difficult spot , it gets to the stage where you have failed so many cars on a certain item and blow me the next vehicle you test has the same fault , now you think to yourself “do I do my job right and fail it which may put me in the amber – red bracket or do I let it go and take a chance and stay green”. One very big step backwards if you ask me .
Another way of putting a nail in us small boys coffin perhaps !
