mine failed on sva although they were e marked,because they didn't have a bevelled edge.pound coins are sharper and i'm yet to cut myself on one!i think i had hitler's love child testing mine in shrewsbury but they passed once i filed a radius on them.

Those reflectors are vicious things and kill or injure literally NO pedestrians each year. You should feel thoroughly ashamed for risking countless lives on your way to SVA with those edges!! Give yourself 3 points and a £60 fine for driving not just an unroadworthy car, but a positively dangerous one!!

If they're the round ones then I failed on them too. I used blister type ones in the end.
