It was also observed that the first pole near the GTT facility along Carifesta Avenue was bent from the apparent impact of the vehicle.

The car then hit and uprooted a second pole bearing the Cayman Islands emblem.

Skid marks from the southern lane onto the northern lane demonstrated the vehicle’s final resting place, inches away from GTT’s gate.

He added that the driver sustained minor injuries as a result of the accident.
