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 29th day of September 2023 I reported for duty at 6:30 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 Standing along Swansea main road in the parish of Clarendon.  At about 12:00pm I observed a motor truck registration number PJ2899 coming toward my direction I executed the number one signal to stop to which the driver complied and I approached. 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.  Destination markings for Santa Cruz to Spanish Town route were on the front and back of the motor truck. He did not produce his driver licence he gave his name to be Rudolph Dollhouse of 5 West Avenue, Spanish Town, St. Catherine. He was wearing his prescribed uniform. There was no off-duty/chartered sign affixed. A total of 17 passengers who were identified as paying passengers were identified in the motor truck. 
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 failing to produce his driver’s Licence and exceeding his seating capacity by carrying 17 passengers when the vehicle was licensed to carry 11.
I showed the driver condition five on his road licence which stated the seating capacity should be eleven passengers excluding the driver. Summonses were prepared and served accordingly to appear before the May Pen Traffic Court on Wednesday November 22, 2023. The summonses were read over to Mr. Dollhouse who accepted and left.
