@ Carib to the bone: Didn’t God took a day of from his work????.
not to revell he rested
Sorry to hear of the accident. Pleased to know that their injuries are somewhat minor.
I do think that the driver may have been tired or sleepy and probably was driving too fast. After all, it is Carnival time and it happened after J’ouvert. He must have had a good time too. I hope that he was not intoxicated.
Drivers, slow down and drive safely. If you drive, do not drink. If you drink, do not drive. If you feel sleepy you should not drive. Otherwise your life, health and well-being of your passenger(s) including other drivers with passengers could be at stake.
Do the police not give drivers who especially had an accident a breathalyzer test?
i agree to what u saying but in my words i would say if u cant drink and drive dont do it. u can drink and still drive but know your limits of drinking
Where in the news published by DNO did you read that their injuries were minor? Please point it out. Thank you
@ Anonymous
I see you were alert. I overlooked “unknown”. I hope that they do not have serious injuries. This is what I should have stated. As you, everyone makes errors. It is not a major one because it does not affect those who were involved in the accident. Get it!
Thank God they’re ok
is that leo jeep
U TO LIKE BEFF
look it ,it might be Leo SUV or suzuki but it is not a jeep
why people like to call names on facebook? if u know the person call their family to confirm. u working for DNO
they are both ok. The woman was traumatized and was given some water to drink The male driver received a sprain wrist .. thk God it could have been worst.
@ Excuse
I can imagine how traumatized she was. The hospital should still have given her a medical test to ensure that she has no internal injuries.
well hope dey get okay
Omg… Hope they’re ok
God is in control He does nt like revelling repent n find a place of worship on sunday mornings
@ carib to the bone
I comprehend what you stated. I have read about it in Holy Scriptures. While some people object to and criticize the Carnival celebrations, they could be doing worst than those who are enjoying it. God knows this too well since He takes note of all our words and actions. May no one be hypocritical about that.
need to have some fun and to enjoy life as we also worship Him. Even this type of enjoyment does not take away the love for God. It is the manner in which they enjoy those days.
Another reason why there is music and dances throughout the year.
Carnival stems from our ancestors, the African slaves. If you do not know this history, you should read about it. You may find this information in one of Lennox Honeychurch’s books.
There is nothing wrong with having Carnival. It all depends how people conduct themselves during this time. If it is good, clean fun, God does not mind. He knows and expects that we earthlings
Carnival is here to stay until the end of time. No one on earth can take this away from the people. They need to let off some steam as well.
Everybody, whatever their race, color, creed or status loves a good time and one as Carnival. As the Carnival enjoyment continues, one more day, may there be no incidents.
You could have well stopped at the end of the first sentence of your second paragraph! “Carnival stems from our ancestors, the African slaves…” Look at this persons name, “Carib to the bone”!What does that person care about African Heritage?
@ Justice and Truth
While I respect everyone’s opinion, I am sure you will admit that the celebrations of our ancestors is not what we see today. Now it is about reveling and drinking and the likes. The kinds of customs we see now-a-days are more revealing than anything else, not the kinds that should really be called custom, but rather show my goodies-tume. God is not in that my friend.
you that hypocrite you does read your bible upside down… Don’t you know anything about the Sabbath and the truth of Sunday worship ?
I agree whith what you have said and have even given you a thums-up, however the post does not say that thay had been revelling.
So God wrecks a car because He doesn’t like partying? You make God sound like a child throwing a tantrum instead of te Creator of everything. I have no doubt that if God the All-Powerful wanted Carnival to stop, He’d find a surer way.
You must be a bitter and unhappy person to sit there thinking people deserve to be injured just because they are having a good time. Save your judgments for those who actually cause pain to others.
