    Has anyone tried to or worn a GoPro or helmet cam on their bike test?

    I can't imagine the tester would be happy about it.

    I bet if you stuck it on the bike most if not all of them would not even cop it TBH. Sure my tester did not even know about my bike with no old style reserve on it. Took me 5 mins to explain the "digital age" to him.....lol.

    Unless the mounts are secure against light fingered citizens they may notice you sticking it back onto the bike when you exit the test centre.

    I saw a few UK tests on YouTube with it.
    In one of the videos I remember the tester just telling the rider not to show his face if he puts it online.

    Just wear it. If the tester asks you to take it off then do it.

    But pissing the tester off at the get go is not my idea of passing a test....they are a fickle enough bunch of fu.ck.ers without adding salt to the eyes! ;)

    Once it's a public place you can record what you like, have a look in the photography forum for the laws.
