A serious accident that occurred on Tuesday at the intersection of Independence Boulevard and Hill Street, Albouystown, Georgetown has left a motorcyclist with significant injuries.
Injured is Nicholie De Souza, 19, a mechanic of D’Urban Street, Lodge, Georgetown.
The collision involved motorcar, PAE 3982, that was driven by a 28-year-old deliveryman of Norton Street, Werk-En-Rust, Georgetown. The other vehicle was an unregistered motorcycle driven by De Souza.
Police investigations revealed that the deliveryman was driving west along the southern lane of Independence Boulevard, while De Souza was traveling east at a high speed on the northern lane. As they neared the intersection, the deliveryman made a right turn onto Hill Street, crossing into De Souza’s path.
As a result, the front of De Souza’s motorcycle collided with the left passenger door of the car.
The force of the impact threw De Souza into the air, causing him to land on the road with multiple injuries. He was conscious when emergency services arrived and was transported to Georgetown Public Hospital, where he was treated for abrasions to his forehead and a broken left leg.
The driver of the car is currently in police custody, assisting with the investigation. (G9)
