The word 'uses' in Section 8 of the Road Traffic Ordinance and Regulation 101 of the Road Traffic (Construction and Use) Regulations includes a driver who drives a vehicle with defective brakes; accordingly the appellant's conviction for using a vehicle with defective brakes is valid and the appeal is dismissed; an owner's liability requires proof of ownership and use, not mere ownership alone.
