of the vehicles, a grey Toyota Surf, was extensively damaged with repairs
estimated to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The accident involving a white goods van and the Toyota occurred when one of

The
impact caused the Surf to flip over and land on its hood.
The occupants of the surf, a male driver and a female passenger, were
miraculously unscathed and managed to crawl through the broken rear windscreen
onto the roadway after the collision.
The
driver of the van also escaped unhurt.
They all
remained on the scene and gave details of the accident to the Police who
arrived shortly after.
FPDMC Chairman, Ms. Merlyn Udho disclosed that Government, through the GFC,
will continue to provide financial resources to the new entity, based on an
annual plan to be approved by Minister Persaud.
