Vehicle & Operator
Services Agency

The Vehicle and Operator Services Agency (VOSA) closed on 31 March 2014. It has been replaced by the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA). This is the information about VOSA that was published at the point that it closed. It is no longer current.

Operational data

Our operational data gives information about compliance and failure rates for our annual testing, MOT and enforcement schemes and policies.

We publish these operational data sets:

• effectiveness report
• fleet compliance checks
• MOT compliance survey

Further VOSA data sets are made publicly available via data.gov.uk.

Official statistics

In addition, a wide range of official statistics on transport are published by the Department for Transport (DfT), including some derived from VOSA data, at Statistics at DfT.

All of these statistics give information for Great Britain overall and are published by DfT to a set timetable.

Information you cannot find

If you cannot find the information you need, it may have been published in response to a Freedom of Information (FOI) request.

You can send an FOI request if you still cannot find the information you need.

Information that cannot be released

We cannot send you information if it’s part of an official statistic that has not yet been published.

This is because the Pre-release Access to Official Statistics Order 2008 limits access to official statistics until they’re published.
