Motorists deserve better

Article Abstract:

Motorists as well as experts in the vehicle industry are not very enthused by the government backed CarWise scheme to be introduced to improve garage servicing, as the scheme is being run by the motor trade itself whereas an independent body should have been given charge. Motorists feel that there should be a regulation over who can open a garage and those regular checks should be conducted to ensure that mechanics are qualified to repair vehicles.
