Britain orders checks on carmakers after VW scandal

Britain said today that fresh tests would be carried out across the automobile industry to ensure that a pollution test cheating scandal at German manufacturer Volkswagen was not repeated.
"The Vehicle Certification Agency, the UK regulator, is working with vehicle manufacturers to ensure that this issue is not industry-wide," said Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin.
"As part of this work, they will re-run laboratory tests where necessary and compare them against real world driving emissions.
