(Kaieteur News) – A 21-year-old motorcyclist lost his life Monday afternoon following a collision on the No. 64 Public Road, Corentyne, Berbice.
Dead is Jadheo Bhimsingh of No. 63 Village, Corentyne, an overseas-based Guyanese. According to police, the accident occurred around 13:00hrs and involved Bhimsingh and a 60-year-old driver from No. 64 Village. Investigators said the motorcyclist was proceeding south along the eastern carriageway at a fast rate of speed.
Bhimsingh was reportedly riding an unregistered motorcycle and was not wearing a safety helmet when he collided with motorcar PKK 5792, which was travelling along the western lane. The impact threw the motorcyclist onto the eastern grass parapet, leaving him with multiple injuries. Public-spirited citizens rushed him in an unconscious state to the Port Mourant Public Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival. A breathalyzer test conducted on the driver of the car reportedly recorded readings of 7 and 8 micrograms. The driver remains in police custody as investigations continue.
