What's a Statutory Off-Road Notification (SORN)?

Revision material from the imported DVSA bank includes source-checked Lanekind learning corrections. These corrections are not newly issued official examination questions, and practice does not reproduce a live test paper.

Answer options

A notification to tell DVSA that a vehicle doesn't have a current MOT

Information kept by the police about the owner of a vehicle

A notification to tell DVLA that a vehicle isn't being used on the road

Information held by insurance companies to check a vehicle is insured

Show the answer

A notification to tell DVLA that a vehicle isn't being used on the roadThis was the right answer

If you want to keep a vehicle untaxed and off the public road, you must make a SORN. It's an offence not to do so. Your SORN is valid until your vehicle is taxed, sold or scrapped.
