*pics* Killed on the bus route...

[X-Axis]

...by an illegal bus route user driving a white wingroad. R.I.P.

Happened at the St. Augustine Circular corner by UWI at about 5:30pm today.

[rollingstock]

RIP to the poor person.

[~*Pãñdorą*~]

He flew out of the vehicle or what?

In any case, R.I.P.

[hustla_ambition101]

Knocked down by a drunk off duty fireman. Arseholes never obey that light, from illegal users to bus drivers to MPs .

[Yodins]

my condolences to the family. that is one of the worst crossing spots on the bus route IMO. i rather walk/travel down to Lakshmi girls and then walk across. yeah, it takes longer but at least you dont end up like this unfortunate fellow.

the amount of pedestrian traffic there everyday, im surprised a walkover has not been constructed as yet. would make life sooo much easier.

[hustla_ambition101]

nuh de first person to get killed there either...something def needs to be built

why should those in authority give a sheit, their children either not studying in T&T or have their own car or driver

I saw the victim that made them put the the crossing light in the first place something around 2000-1.

There are a number of factors playing off at this site:
Speeding drivers coming over the hill from the west can't react fast enough.
People waiting for maxis stand too much on the shoulders leaving no room for a driver to avoid hitting a car or person
People don't like cross overs because they think they will look lame using it when it is a 10m crossing.
There are no laws for jaywalking, so ppl could just disrespect the lights and take a chance.

3/4 of them won't use it anyway... why they wanna take a extra 5mins to walk up some steps and walk across the walkover to reach to the other side, when they can risk it and run across in half a minute.
TIME LOST > LIFE

[shake d livin wake d dead]

condolences goes to the family of the victim.

[Stephon.]

Well this sucks - I used to be scared of that crossing when I used to go lessons by sacc. Ruhr through class I would sit here and think if I would make it across the road alive sucks 2 be the victim though.

This guy needs to be punished to the fullest extent of the law to send a message to illegal users of the PBR...

I agree.
No disrespect to the deceased, but people have this notion that "Ah in the road walking slow, stop your car!"..The car usually wins.

So the legal drivers don't drive in a reckless manner ?

[RBphoto]

RIP dude. Trinis use walkovers as rain shelters... should still build one though.

[Oleander]

pedestrians need to lose the "I am an iron monkey" attitude and drivers need to try to drive safely and obey the law.

RIP pedestrian
and
I hope justice prevails ... and said off-duty fireman pays the price.

But we can only hope.

Drivers MUST drive more carefully. That is the first point of order!!! If he was not "SPEEDING", he would have had more reaction time to take evasive action.

Or maybe he would not have needed to take evasive action at all even if he were driving MUCH MORE SLOWLY.

Damn, that crossing needs a walkover of some sort. The light is dangerous (Oh, Really, now!!!) because if heading east, right before the light there is a "hill"...some vehicles come down speeding and are unable to stop being suprised by a red light. (There you go!!!!)
