What does a dealer have to do if they want to store records somewhere other than the location where they do business?

  1. Apply to OMVIC for permission

  2. Dealers cannot store records somewhere other than the location where they do business

  3. Complete a safety course certifying the safe storage of records elsewhere

  4. Inform OMVIC beforehand

The correct answer is: Apply to OMVIC for permission

Dealers that want to store records somewhere other than the location where they do business must apply to OMVIC for permission. This is because the administrative authority responsible for regulating the vehicle sales industry in the province of Ontario is OMVIC. Therefore, obtaining permission from OMVIC is necessary to ensure compliance with regulations and proper record keeping. Option B is incorrect, as dealers are allowed to store records at a different location with permission. Option C is incorrect, as completing a safety course is not relevant to record storage. Option D may seem like a good choice, but dealers must go beyond simply informing OMVIC and actually obtain permission.
