There are any methods of transporting horses but you need an MOT for horse boxes in Hoylake if you have a motorised horse trailer. The unit is usually a vehicle that is modified into a mobile stable that can carry one or more horses. It is designed to make the ride smooth and safe for the animals that can, in some cases, be highly strung. Horse boxes are subject to the same rules laid down by the Department of Transport. If they are over 3 years of age they need an annual MOT test. The entire vehicle is checked although the state of certain mechanical aspects cannot be established like the engine and gearbox. The test checks the lights and signalling equipment and makes sure that the steering and suspension are in good working order.
The annual test on vehicles is for the good of all road users. In Hoylake, MOT for horse boxes is especially important considering the value of the animals being transported. Brakes, tyres and suspension are very important to ensure a smooth ride with minimal jolting to the animals. The brakes are checked to see that they work and can stop the car in a specific distance and time. The tyres are inspected for depth of tread and for any imperfections in the walls of the tyre which may lead to a burst tyre. This would be catastrophic is there were horses on board at the time.
