Safety inspectors shocked by Scilly's cars

Car inspectors have said they are shocked by the state of the islands cars.

This week they checked 63 vehicles for faults and ordered 24 off the road.

A spokesman for the Police told the Western Morning News: “It was apparent that even basic maintenance was not being carried out. As a result of the check, the issues surrounding vehicle licensing and MOTs on the Isles of Scilly will be reviewed.”
