Car dealerships in England to open on June 1: What is being done to keep buyers safe?
Strict measures are being introduced to ensure buyer safety.
Car dealerships in England are set to open on June 1, throwing open doors which have remained closed for more than two months. Prime Minister Boris Johnson made the announcement this week, giving dealers the opportunity to trade fully once again – though many have been selling cars online and via click-and-collect services for much of the lockdown period.
But even though dealers are allowed to open, what is being done to ensure customer safety?
Certificate
All dealers are going to be required to display a safety certificate which signifies that they are complying with government guidance on managing the risk of coronavirus.
If you’re planning on visiting a dealership after June 1, make sure that this certificate is being displayed. If you’re worried, give the dealers a call ahead of your visit to make sure that they’re complying with the latest measures.
