Dear Editor,
It was another holiday weekend with several deaths, particularly young people, following road accidents, a number involving motorcycles; fires, two which claimed lives; vehicle accidents among other incidents resulting in deaths or injuries and damage to and.loss of property.
The continuing trend of accidents on a daily basis must be of major concern, as is the high incidence, of recent, of road deaths involving young motorcyclists. The cause, more often, being speeding and losing control.
It seems as soon as youths meet the age for a licence, the acquisition of a motorcycle or car is their priority.
When will they learn? The answer is blowing in the wind.
My condolences and sympathies to all affected in one way or the other by these sad events over last weekend. Another holiday weekend is almost with us. All are urged to be safe.
Yours faithfully,
Shamshun Mohamed
