Prime Minister Andrew Holness says 2023 will see an improvement in public order and safety throughout the country.

In his new year’s message he notes that the new road traffic act will aid in this endeavour.

According to the prime minister, when the new road traffic act comes into effect on February 1, it will ensure among other things that pillions wear a helmet and that all bikes are sold with helmets.

He also points to the implementation of the electronic ticketing system in coming weeks.
