Why does the UCC distinguish between merchants and nonmerchants by holding merchants to a higher standard in some instances?
A merchant is a trader whose profession is to carry out buying
and/or selling. Now for example if someone sells a car once (his
personal car) he may not be classified as a merchant because that
is not his primary activity and source of livelihood. He would not
be classified merchant because it was just a one off thing.
On the other hand, someone who sells a car regularly lets say some
cars each month, then he would be classified as a merchant.
Now someone who makes a profession of selling cars shall have higher standards as they are doing it as a livelihood. They need more rules and regulations in order that they do not behave unethically. Moreover a person who sells car once is more likely to behave ethically as his primary motive is to sell car (maybe to buy a new one) and not have a higher profit.
