What must licensed MV dealers do if they want to operate legally?

Licensed motor vehicle dealers are required to maintain a certain level of business operations to ensure compliance with regulations and to serve the public effectively. Being open for at least three days a week is a standard requirement that allows customers sufficient opportunity to interact with sales personnel, view inventory, and make purchases. This frequent availability supports consumer access to services and helps foster a competitive marketplace.

Operating under various license types simultaneously or being open for 24 hours is not a standard requirement and does not necessarily contribute to legal compliance. Employing a specific number of salespeople may be beneficial for operations but isn't mandated as a condition for legal operation of a dealership. Therefore, the requirement to be open at least three days a week aligns with the expectation for licensed dealers to conduct business in a manner that is accessible to their customers.
