Question 5

How does the Highway Traffic Act's licensing requirement under section 59(1) for dealing in motor vehicles apply to a person already registered as a motor vehicle dealer under the MVDA?

Accepted Answer

Section 59(2) of the Highway Traffic Act expressly carves MVDA-registered dealers out of the section 59(1) licensing regime. Registration under the Motor Vehicle Dealers Act, 2002 replaces the need for a separate Highway Traffic Act garage or storage licence.

Answer

The MVDA-registered dealer is exempt from the section 59(1) licensing requirement

Answer

The dealer must hold both an MVDA registration and a separate section 59 licence for each premises

Answer

The dealer still requires a section 59 licence, but only for the wrecking-and-dismantling part of the business

Answer

The exemption applies only if the dealer's premises are also licensed under municipal by-laws
