Road recklessness continues
The drivers of these two vehicles which collided at Middle and Camp Streets are both claiming that they had the green light.
The popular thoroughfare, Middle Street, Georgetown, was the scene of two more accidents as the recklessness continued among impatient and careless drivers for the new year.
The accidents occurred minutes apart, a corner away from each other, and while no one was seriously hurt, the vehicles involved sustained significant damage that could possibly run into millions of dollars.
Both accidents were apparently caused by impatience.
In the first incident, which occurred at the busy Camp and Middle Street intersection, a brand new Toyota Premio was slammed by a Toyota AE 100. The Premio ended up near the fence of Christ Church Secondary School.
One of the cars was proceeding west along Middle Street, while the other was going north on Camp Street.
Interestingly, both drivers claimed that they had the green light.
And just as the police were investigating that accident, a loud crash was heard coming from a westerly direction and upon checking it was discovered that two more cars had collided.
