Motor vehicle dealer and salesperson registrations revoked for selling unsafe vehicles with false safety certificates.
The Registrar proposed to revoke the registrations of a motor vehicle dealer and salesperson after they sold two vehicles that were certified as safe but were subsequently deemed unfit for the road by an MTO inspector.
The dealer argued he relied on the Safety Standards Certificates issued by a third-party inspection station.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the dealer failed to meet his disclosure obligations and was wilfully blind to the vehicles' unsafe conditions, directing the Registrar to carry out the proposal to revoke the registrations.
