    The vehicle overturned. When will some of them drive cautiously and not try to overtake? Rush and don’t rush, you will get there, hopefully, on time in one piece. Better to drive slow and steady.

    My concerns are the laws of the land concerning road safety and speeding and the equipment needed to deal with it. For example, A police officer placed in a strategic location with a mechanical speedometer can check how fast a car was travelling but do we have the equipment. Is there a defensive driving course offered to drivers to ensure road safety awareness? does the laws give fines to drivers found speeding? Trying to open the conversation and ask the questions.

    Word of Advice:Drivers please exercise caution and due diligence while driving. You can only be late once and plan ahead to avoid speeding. Remember, Do not drive with yourself only in mind but other.

    Pray for safety and less accidents
    One love

    I hope that all involved survive this tragedy. Those of us that operates vehicles in DA must exercise caution. A few minutes behind schedule to dive a little slower will avoid tragedy,

    As I review this kink of vehicles accident in Dominica, this is my opinion There should be traffic police office patrolling the street 24/07 issuing tickets to drivers speeding. There should be speed limits posted along the road, this would save lives and cut down on accidents which of course happened due to speeding. We must be Proactive not action active. in other words we should take every efforts to prevent things from happing before it’s happened. I am hoping one day I will be an assets to the law department in Dominica.

      @ Jack the old man- the questionable road worthiness of some of those jallopies which are on the roads do not help. I cannot believe the number of vehicles with bald tires that are allowed to be on the road. This is especially dangerous in a place like Dominica where it rains so much.

      What is the police traffic division doing? Get busy and help save lives!
