VOSA have a lot more responsibilities than the MOT. If you got stopped by a VOSA roadside check then you would get fined for having too much rubber showing. They have been known to set up spot checks outside 4x4 sites.

Its actually the DVSA as VOSA is no more.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.
