Judah-Lee Xavier , a 13-yr-old female of upper lane in Portsmouth is presently a patient at the Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) after being involved in a motor vehicular collision on the weekend.
Police PRO, Acting Inspector Pellam Jno Baptiste said the incident occurred about 5:30 pm on Saturday, 4th June 2016 on the Edward Oliver Leblanc Highway in Massacre.
He said the collision involved Subaru Legacy Registration number P0381 being driven by Joshua Hillaire ,of Castle Comfort, and a pedestrian.
Xavier sustained injuries to her head and other parts of her body.
She was transported to the accident and Emergency Department of the PMH where she was examined by a medical doctor and admitted.
Investigations are ongoing.
This was only caused by SPEED and DARK TINTS! The driver never slowed down because he never saw the child. There is video footage of when the vehicle stopped some 100 feet away (approx.) at a high speed! The actual impact was not caught. The darkers on that vehicle is also too dark. (By the way, the authorities have yet to collect the video evidence from what I have heard)
When drivers heading north on that road leave the speed bump by Icho, they always speed up until they have to slow down by Sea Moon. So that stretch of road is like a race track: even overtaking happening there when this is a no overtaking zone.
The authorities should put a speed bump right there by the playing field.
I hope in time she will recover with no side effects.
Reduce your speeds no racing tracts in D A just standard roads.
Seatbelts!
For who the pedestrian??
Oh dear! Speedy recovery, hon.
