    Hopeless. These bus drivers get into too many accidents. The traffic department needs to start supervising the way they are driving and issue citations accordingly.

      Before you blame the bus driver, know what happened that caused the accident. It was NOT HIS FAULT

    WOW! Accidents are never planned nor do they set like rain.

    To ovsertale recklessly is to date the udertaaker.
    To be in a hurry you could be fit to bury,
    To drink and drive, you may not survive,
    Why make an error to cause a terror,
    Keep your eyes the road to be alive.
    Just don;t speed the dvil to jive.

    If anywhere needs a traffic light or regular direction of traffic in Dominica, this place is it.

      Only for them to ignore. Laws clearly have now meaning in the Dominica of today anymore. The PM proclaimed it some years back …no Law and no Constitution… What’s good for the goose is good for the gander and Skerrit is satisfied with that status quo.

    DNO this time I think you should have waited on the information before putting it out because with today and tomorrow being a holiday it means we have to wait until Wednesday to know the facts because you close and will not process our comments so we could probably get a clue from bloggers, no “talk on the block” and no “hot seat” means I will be disturbed for a few days, especially as I look at the wreckage and was able to see the plate # of the bus, which tells me it is a close friend of mine and when I call his number I not getting no response. Anyway hope no one is seriously injured as we pray for speedy recovery.
