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 21st day of October 2022 I reported for duty at 6:00 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 properly 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 conducting vehicle stop and inspection along Spur Tree in the parish of Clarendon.  At about 9:56 am I observed a Toyota Voxy registration number PM3850 coming toward my direction.  I executed the number one signal to stop and pull over to which the driver complied. I approached the vehicle along with a Police officer. I cautioned the driver asked if he was operating to which he stated “yes,” and requested his vehicle documents to include: Road Licence, Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate, Fitness Certificate, Insurance Certificate, Badge and Drivers Licence. The wording “Psalm 27” was present on the on the trunk, and based on in road licence this was unauthorised. 
Destination markings for Mandeville to New Forest route were on the front doors. From his Driver’s Licence he was identified as Dowen Simpson of Downs District, Watson Hill, Manchester. He was wearing the prescribed uniform he was to be wearing. There was no off-duty/chartered sign affixed. A total of 6 passengers who were identified as paying passengers were identified in the motor car. 
He produced all his documents. All documents received were found to be up to date. I cautioned the driver and informed him of the offences and that he would be prosecuted for unlawfully cause Graphics wordings or markings to be made on the vehicle.
Summonses were prepared and served accordingly to appear before the Mandeville Traffic Court on Thursday December 8, 2022. The summons was read over to Mr. Simpson who accepted and left.
