Ministry of Transport and Works of Barbados

Maintains the text in force

The ministry responsible for road traffic law, and the publisher of the only readable and current consolidation of the Road Traffic Act Chapter 295. Its edition incorporates amendments up to Act 2022-21, carries the historical note for each provision in square brackets, and is materially newer than the Chapter in the judiciary's statute library, which is largely a scan.

Maintains the current text of the law as amended, so you can read a provision as it stands today rather than reconstructing it from amendments.

Cannot be cited for

It consolidates and does not issue. The document lists the Acts it incorporates and the Law Revision Orders behind it but states no date to which it is current, so the last Act named is not a cut-off and must not be recorded as one. It does not publish the subsidiary legislation made under the Act, which is where any visitor driving permit would have to be found, and it does not publish fees.
