Statement from the Office of the Chief Transport Officer (Kora Francis)
Road Safety During Carnival Celebrations

"As our nation enters the height of the Carnival celebrations, the Division of Transport is reminding all road users that road safety remains a shared responsibility. With increased traffic, larger crowds, and a greater number of activities taking place across the island, motorists, motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians are urged to exercise patience, caution, and courtesy at all times.

The Division encourages all motorists to ensure that their Driver's License and Vehicle License are valid and up to date, and to operate only those vehicles for which they are properly licensed. Drivers are also reminded to comply with all traffic laws, observe posted speed limits, and exercise extra care in areas where Carnival events are taking place and pedestrian activity is expected to be high.

Motorists are strongly urged never to drink and drive. Anyone intending to consume alcohol should make arrangements for a designated driver or use a taxi or other reliable form of transportation. Vehicle occupants should wear seat belts at all times, while motorcyclists and their passengers are reminded to wear approved safety helmets.

Pedestrians also have an important role to play in ensuring road safety. The Division encourages the use of sidewalks wherever available and urges pedestrians to cross roads only at designated crossing points. Parents and guardians should closely supervise children, particularly in busy areas, and everyone is encouraged to remain alert, especially during nighttime activities and in heavily congested locations.

Throughout the Carnival period, traffic officers and law enforcement personnel will be deployed to manage traffic, monitor road use, and enforce compliance with the Road Traffic Act and related regulations. Members of the public are asked to cooperate fully with their directions, as well as with all temporary road closures, diversions, and other traffic control measures implemented to facilitate Carnival activities safely.

The Division of Transport wishes everyone a safe and enjoyable Carnival and encourages all road users to make responsible choices that help protect lives. By showing patience, respect, and consideration for one another, we can all contribute to a festive season that is memorable for the right reasons."
