Effectively MOT testers all have to follow the same training from VOSA as any other garage.

Mechanics dont get training from VOSA.  Mechanics fix things....MOT testers inspect vehicles according to a strict rulebook.

Big difference.

halfords, back street garage, main dealer....all MOT testers get the same training and refresher courses now and again.
