i thought you had to have one, i used to have a bald one and kept getting hassle fromt he police cos they said i may as well not have it, so i took it out and they started moaning bout that, dont no how it stands with mots though but i always thought you are supposed to have a legal one fitted

I think the police (and breakdown organisations) are a bit confused over this. The law does not say you have to have a spare, only that if you *do* have one, its got to have legal tread.
