Authorities preparing to arrest 70,000 motorists with outstanding tickets
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Minister of Justice Delroy Chuck today warned motorists with unpaid traffic tickets to get their affairs in order as the Government is preparing warrants for their arrests.
Chuck told members of Parliament’s Standing Finance Committee this morning that the authorities are taking steps to ensure that “when we arrest people, we know that they actually have not paid the fines”.
Noting that the police currently have 70,000 warrants to be served, the minister warned, “If you have not paid your traffic fines try and put it together soon”.
