Attention Truck Drivers: Did you know, according to the Traffic Act (2026 Revision), it is illegal to use unmuffled engine compression brakes (also known as jake brakes) other than for emergency purposes?

These brakes create loud noise and cause disturbances to residential communities, and should not be necessary if driving safely and within speed limits with the road conditions in the Cayman Islands. Police will be cracking down on offenders, particularly in the Eastern Districts.

According to the Traffic Act, the penalty for violations is up to a fine of $2,500, or six months in prison.

We are asking all truck drivers to do your part in helping us to ensure the safety and peace of our communities.

For construction zones: -

• Reduce speed in the construction zones and obey all the posted signs and signals
