VIPD Cracking Down On People Without Driver’s Licenses And Registration

CHARLOTTE AMALIE — The V.I. Bureau of Motor Vehicles said today police will soon be cracking down on motorists who fail to register their vehicles and apply for a local driver’s license.

BMV Director designee Barbara Jackson-McIntosh said her bureau is responsible for the licensing of motor vehicle operators and the registration and titling of motor vehicles.  

“All affected persons and businesses are mandated to register their vehicles in the Virgin Islands and obtain a V.I. driver’s license if applicable,” Jackson-McIntosh said.

For information about how you can register your vehicle in the Virgin Islands or how to obtain a driver’s license please call the Bureau of Motor Vehicles in St. Croix at (340) 713-4268 or visit the St Croix office at the Patrick Sweeney Police Headquarters in Golden Grove.
