“Should any motor vehicle repairer, mechanic or panel beater business owner believe his business does not fall within the ambit of the Act, they are requested to contact W/O Van der Merwe to avoid wrongful assumptions being made, which may lead to an unpleasant confrontation with the law,” she added.
