The police said they have removed over 300 registration plates from defective motor vehicles since the start of the year.
This comes as the Traffic and Highway Division of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) intensifies its geographic support operation strategy aimed at reducing the number of deaths on the nation's roadways.
Also, the police said a number of persons have been prosecuted in the latest crackdown.
Addressing a recent Jamaica Information Service Think Tank, Deputy Superintendent of Police Gary McKenzie revealed that the police have been working with the Island Traffic Authority to execute joint operations at strategic locations across the island on a weekly basis.
McKenzie said since the start of the year, six such operations have been executed in the parishes of Westmoreland, Clarendon, St Mary and St Catherine.
He said special attention is being paid to motorcyclists as well as commercial and public passenger vehicles.
