A couple from Pakuri Village are thankful for life after being involved in a motor vehicle accident on Sunday evening along the Linden/ Soesdyke Highway.
Stabroek News understands that Deon Daniels and his wife were returning home to Pakuri late on Sunday evening, after spending the weekend at their daughter who lives on the East Coast of Demerara, when they were involved in the accident.
Speaking from his hospital bed at the Georgetown Public Hospital, Daniels, who sustained a broken right arm, said, “We were going home and a container truck that was coming down from Linden ended up in my lane. I tried to go over into the other lane but he put on his bright lights and I tried to maintain my control but we ended up hitting the back of the truck,” before noting that he has no recollection of what happened after that moment.
