Chipped Windscreen, MOT Failure?

[DaveDreads]

Is a inch long crack in the windsreen an MOT failure?

My MOT is up at the end of November and in the last
few months I have not seen a single window repair bloke
in any of the supermarket car parks.

I know that the repair is free, I just havn't seen one,
will the car fail its MOT if I leave it?

Depends i think, is it in your view, i have like three rather large cracks in windscreen and it still passed the MOT from local renault garage fine.... they just said it would have failed had the cracks been directly in my view....

Its kind of in my view, its just a bit below my
eye line.

Like CJ says . If it's in your line of sight and bigger than 10mm it should fail . Anywhere else it shouldn't be bigger than 40mm .

Take it somewhere like this and let them have a look . They tell you exactly whether it will fail or not .

OK nice one for that, its way bigger than 10mm,
its about an inch so it will probably fail.

Someone in my office has just told me that I can get
someone to repair it while im at work.

Cheers for replies.
