Is this a true test, or is it "how bent MOT garages are in the UK?"
I mean, FFS, how can 98% more cars fail on brakes in Dundee than in the South East?... something isn't right there. If those stats were to be believed, half of the people in Dundee would be dead!

98% more than what? relative differences expressed as percentages can be extremely misleading...
