St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda, Tuesday April 7,2026

The police are continuing investigations into the traffic collision that occurred along Pares Main Road involving a white Toyota Hiace motor van and a white Honda Accord motor car on Easter Monday, April 6.

The allegations are that the driver of the Honda Accord was travelling from East to West at a high rate of speed and overtook a line of traffic.

During the manoeuvre, the vehicle collided with the Toyota Hiace, which was travelling in the opposite direction.
As a result of the impact, four individuals, including a minor, sustained injuries and were transported to the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre by Emergency Medical Services personnel.

All individuals involved in the accident remain hospitalized with multiple injuries that are considered serious. However, the minor, a 63-year-old male, and an 18-year-old male are reported to be in stable condition. Doctors are continuing efforts to stabilize the driver of the car. Both vehicles were extensively damaged.

The Police Administration is reminding all motorists to exercise caution while using the nation’s roads and to avoid dangerous driving practices that may endanger lives.

  3. Too many idiots are given a license to drive. They might have to reconsider issuing license at 25 yrs

  4. Wishing death to someone is ridiculous. When I was a young man I did some silly driving, showing off to my friends. Thank God for his mercies. I pray that everyone involved in this accident recovers 100% .

  5. This digging up of Factory road over and over and over and over by the contractor is ridiculous. Not saying anything should be driving reckless in the single lane. However, it is time for the government to put an end to this contractor blocking off the road, at what time of the day they feel. I pray that everyone makes it and fully recovers .

  6. Law enforcement should be collecting blood and urine samples of driver(s) involved in serious accidents, to determine such things as BAL – blood alcohol levels, BAC – blood alcohol content and any other drugs be they prescription, OTC – over the counter or illegal.
