About this plate
THE TYPE ALMOST NOBODY ELSE HAS. s. 65 creates REPAIRERS' number plates as a statutory type distinct from dealers', with its own deeming rule in s. 35(3) in identical terms to the dealer rule. A garage moving a customer's vehicle under its own plate is common practice everywhere; a legislature giving it its own plate TYPE, separate from the dealer plate, is not.
