The British Department for Transport utilized AI and clustering techniques to enhance MOT testing. By analyzing data from 66,000 testers and 40 million tests, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) pinpointed high-risk garages for more focused inspections. This improved compliance monitoring, reduced preparation time by 50%, and led to more effective disciplinary actions. The model is updated quarterly.
