Maintenance costs
There are many products on the market that improve fuel efficiency – additives, radiator blinds, electric fans, cruise control etc.
If each one improves the consumption by 10% and you fit 10 devices to a single vehicle, will it run without using any fuel?

Introducing Authorised Testing FacilitiesAfter 40 years of testing at dedicated locations across the UK, VOSA is establishing a new Authorised Testing Facilities (ATF) network. This means: • ATFs will be VOSA-authorised locations where VOSA staff will continue to
test vehicles to the same high standards
• Premises with heavy vehicle testing lanes that meet a preset criteria can become an ATF
• It is expected that ATFs will be located where vehicles are currently maintained and repaired
• The market will determine when and where ATF sites are established –this will not be influenced by VOSA

Key benefits
• Less vehicle ‘downtime’ with the introduction of ‘out of hours’ testing• Improved access to testing with an expected net increase in testing sites • Across the industry, a reduction in the distance travelled to and from
testing sites
Industry & Customers
• Reducing distances travelled to and from testing sites will mean:– Less congestion– Fewer accidents– Better local air quality, less noise and fewer greenhouse gases– Less wear and tear on infrastructure
UK Public
• A reduction in the overall cost of testing vehicles owned by the operator (taking into account downtime, staff and travel costs)
• Greater convenience by improving the location and flexibility of testing times
• Opportunity to generate income by hosting testing services
ATFs
