It was either VOLVO or MERC dcpc division that went intoo this issue with the head DSA bods as they are dcpc training providers and have mechanics
The DSA stated that mechanics taking LGVs to MOT are not exempt
To confirm this please call the DSA dcpc hotline or VOLVO/MERC dcpc section - I did and was told the same by the DSA and the provider - sorry cannot remember which provider it was
