TAJ resumes collecting payments for traffic ticket fines

Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) says it is now in a position to collect payments for traffic ticket fines at its offices or via the online portal.

TAJ was unable to collect payments because it had not received the finalised list of  traffic offence codes following recent changes to the Road Traffic Act.

In early November, Parliament hastily pushed through amendments to the Act following a Supreme Court injunction barring the police from issuing traffic tickets in excess of rates charged up to 2006.

Motorists had to wait until the 21-day payment period expired and attend court in the parish where the offence was recorded to pay tickets.
