Antoinette Thompson States,
I am a gazetted Route Inspector since November 1, 2019 employed to the Transport Authority and attached to the Swansea Satellite Office, Osbourne Store, Clarendon. My duties as an Inspector include the monitoring and regulating of public passenger vehicles and prosecuting for breaches of the relevant Road Traffic enactments. 
On Friday the 12th day of May 2023 I reported for duty at 10:00 am, I was briefed accordingly by my supervisor and dispatched on a summons operation that was scheduled to take place on the said day. I was accompanied by fellow inspectors, members of the Jamaica Constabulary Force attached to the Transport Authority and a Justice of the Peace for the parish of Clarendon.  All members of the Transport Authority and Jamaica Constabulary Force were appropriately attired in our respective uniforms. My duties for the day entailed Inspection of PPV’s documents and drivers to ensure compliance as stipulated under the Transport Authority and Road Traffic Acts and Regulations. 
I along with the team assigned were standing along Sandy Bay in the parish of Clarendon.  At about 3:25 pm when I observed a White Toyota Probox registration number PK9594 coming toward the direction in which I was standing. An officer executed the number one signal for the driver to stop and he complied. I approached the said vehicle, introduced myself, cautioned the driver and requested he produce the vehicle documents to include: Road Licence, Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate, Fitness Certificate, Insurance Certificate, Badge and Drivers Licence. There was no off duty/chartered sign affixed to the dashboard of the said vehicle. The driver responded that he did not have any vehicle documents for the said vehicle. He however produced his driver’s licence which identified him as Calvin Johnson of Henrique Boulevard, St. Johns, Spanish Town, St. Catherine.
 I pointed out the offences of failure to produce road Licence, failure to produce Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate, failure to produce fitness Certificate and failure to produce Insurance Certificate. I informed him that summonses will be prepared for the same offences. The driver stated “mi a beg yuh a chance mummy, mi is a trying yute, yuh know mi, mi neva diss yuh yet.” 
Summonses were issued and prepared accordingly for all other offences to appear before the May Pen Traffic Court on Wednesday June 28, 2023. These summonses were read over and served to Mr. Johnson. He accepted and left.
