There has been an announcement from the government to say they are now taking extra measures to help cut the cost of running a car, including efforts to reduce whiplash fraud and a freeze on the cost of a vehicle MOT and review of the price of a driving test price.

Also included in the announcement is  a scheme designed to reduce the cost of fuel at motorway service stations, which for many years has been a source of controversy with many motorists who believe they get stung in what is effectively a monopolistic situation.
