The Driver and Vehicle Agency (DVA) today announced it would rearrange MOT tests free of charge for motorists affected by the severe weather.
A DVA spokesperson said: "We recognise the difficulty many customers faced due to the adverse weather conditions on Saturday 16 August.
"Therefore we are urging customers who were unable to attend for their vehicle or driving test to contact the test centre involved where their appointment will be re-scheduled free of charge."
DVA urged motorists who need reappointments to call their local test centre where their appointment was booked and ask for the centre manager to issue them a free test.
