Licences Suspended For Demerit Points

According to the Island Traffic Authority (ITA), over 100 notices of suspension have so far been issued to persons, who have accumulated 10 or more demerit points on their driver’s license. Persons who have accumulated 10-13 demerit points will have their license suspended for 6 months, 14-19 demerit points result in a one-year suspension, and 20 demerit points and over result in a 2-year suspension.

Once a notice of suspension has been sent, the driver’s license holder must surrender the license to the (ITA) within 21 days. Failure to comply is an offence. Director of the ITA Kenute Hare, explains once a notice of suspension is issued, a copy is sent to the Public Safety Traffic Enforcement Branch of the Jamaica Constabulary Force and the Tax Administration of Jamaica.
