My Bus
Given that Sol Trader has no employees and runs the business himself, he keeps his Certificate
of Accreditation as evidence of his sole accountability for the safety of his operation.
Sol outsources the maintenance of his bus to a local mechanic. Sol advised the mechanic in writing of his
safety obligation to maintain My Bus buses in accordance with the requirements of the My Bus MIS and
MMS and provided the mechanic with copies.
Sol has obtained a letter from the mechanic which confirms that the mechanic is aware of his obligations.
