Project Zero Jamaica

NGO whose purpose is to lobby the government to make necessary changes to Public Transportation and Road Safety law with an aim of Zero road fatalities by 2030.

Spare a thought this morning for the families who have lost loved ones in road fatalities this year. The people who must endure a Christmas morning with out their loved ones. Keep them in your prayers and should you venture bout today, do what you must to reach home safe.

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

Merry Christmas.

After the mutiple fatality crash on Monday evening, 425 have died on our roads. And the one on Monday, having read the police report, was entirely preventable. Another case of a vehicle overtaking a long line of traffic. For God's sake just #Slowdown and #ReachHomeSafe #NRSC

Traffic is your fault and here's why. From @doughnutmedia

[Jamaica Observer @JamaicaObserver]

The police are seeking the public's help to locate the driver responsible for yesterday's hit-and-run incident along Hagley Park Road that left one man dead and a woman injured.

Years or inaction and mismanagement and oversight at work here. You hate to admit it but they are correct.

Taxi operators say gov't should take responsibility for increase in road deaths https://t.co/ttycKnmagZ

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

@IrieSoundsJA @robot_taxi And rightfully so. They have been allowed to carry in like this for decades with no real penalty or plans to streamline public transportation. It's like not discipling a child then getting upset when the child becomes rotten and cats out.

[Jamaica Gleaner @JamaicaGleaner]

Frome Technical High School in Westmoreland and the Maroon Town community of St James were both plunged into mourning on Tuesday following the tragic death of a teacher in a St Elizabeth automobile crash. Read more here: https://t.co/BJT96kBj73 #GLNRToday

Corruption and corrupt behavior is one of the biggest issues in the fight for Road Safety in Jamaica.

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

And yet when we say the agencies need to do more we get push back.

[Robot Taxi @robot_taxi]

@keri_patterson @DamienWKing @JamaicaConstab Indiscipline has now reached epic proportions. While police have stepped up efforts to fine offenders (many accumulating +1,000 fines) the traffic court fails to issue warrants. The result, PPV operators are only required to pay a maximum of 10/1,000 fines.

@AndrewHolnessJM @MTMJamaica @JamaicaConstab when are we going to STOP being REACTIVE and start being PROACTIVE?

@NRSCJamaica @RoadSafetyJA

[Damien King @DamienWKing]

Yes, in the anarchy that is Jamaican roads where no laws are enforced, the sidewalk can be a driving lane if you want.

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

We're glad you're ok!

[Dionne JacksonMiller @djmillerJA]

Somebody just ran straight through a 4-way stop and came close to hitting me. I really think these have outlived their usefulness in Jamaica and should all be taken out. @lucienforJesus @AndrewHolnessJM

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

@lucienforJesus We've been trying to find out.

[Lucien Jones @lucienforJesus]

What happened next?

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

Like we've said over and over again, everyone is affected by the unruly behavior on our roads, even the @AndrewHolnessJM and/or his team.

@JamaicaConstab @mns_jamaica @MTMJamaica

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

Utter disregard for law and order.

[Shaun J. @Shaungirl]

Just another Friday evening in traffic @JamaicaConstab @robot_taxi #sigh

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

@Countryxxxx @MaleekPowell So don't introduce any other possible solution?

I think we can both agree that the current laws and the enforcement of said laws need overhauling. As a part of that, new suggestions and ideas are need. It's all good an well to find fault, but, follow it up with a solution.

[Project Zero Jamaica @ZeroJamaica]

In our proposed Reformation of Jamaican public transport, all vehicles entered into the system should be limited.

[Anna Semlyen @AnnaSemlyen1]

In car speed limiters are going to help pacer cars. Do it wide, include as many people as possible. Do it loud. Do it now! For the elderly who might otherwise give up walking. 30moh is scary from height of an 8 year old. Traffic reduction needed @20splentyforus #20splenty
