Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands – Tuesday, 22 April 2025: The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) wishes to remind the general public that operating a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) without the appropriate licensing is a violation of the Road Traffic Ordinance. This includes, but is not limited to, taxis, private charters, private transfers, unauthorised jitneys, and omnibuses.
It is also an offence to use, or permit the use of, a vehicle for purposes other than those for which it has been licensed. All individuals operating a PSV are required to hold a valid Public Service Operator’s License.
The DMV urges all individuals currently engaging in unauthorised PSV operations to immediately cease and desist. The department remains committed to upholding the integrity of the road traffic system and will pursue the necessary enforcement actions against violators.
Members of the public who wish to report illegal PSV activities or require further information are encouraged to contact the Department of Motor Vehicles via the contacts listed below:
