Yes, reversing lights are a requirement for the MOT (Ministry of Transport) test in the UK. Vehicles must have at least one functioning reversing light to pass the test, as it is essential for safety when reversing. If a vehicle does not have this feature or if the reverse lights are not working, it can result in a failed MOT.

Does it matter which side of the car your reverse light is on?

Not really. As you don't have to have one on at all if you don't want one, its not part of the mot. There use to be a rule that if it was on it had to work, but even that's been relaxed now. You often see 4x4's with big reversing lights on as they go off road a lot. In the UK if the vehicle does not have a reversing light on both sides of the then the light must be either central or on the off side (right in the UK)
