Minister of Transport Daryl Vaz has urged motorists to service their vehicles regularly, as they are responsible for every life they transport.

He also urged all road users to recommit to road safety.

He was reacting to yesterday’s fatal motor vehicle crash along the East to West toll road / PJ Patterson Highway, in St Catherine.

A Toyota Hiace bus veered off the road into a ditch.

5 people were killed while several others have been hospitalised.

In expressing sadness at the tragedy, and condolences to affected relatives and friends, Vaz noted that the severity of the crash underscores the urgent need for heightened vigilance and responsible behaviour on the nation’s roads, particularly as the island enters the busy Christmas season.

The Minister urged road users to exercise heightened caution, stressing that split-second mechanical failures or lapses can have life-altering consequences.

He pointed out that mechanical failures can occur without warning, and a moment of distraction or speeding can turn fatal in an instant.

The Minister also appealed to citizens to desist from recording, sharing, or circulating graphic images or videos of crash victims, out of respect for the families of the deceased, and to avoid compromising ongoing investigations.

As of November 26, a total of 337 Jamaicans have been killed in 297 fatal collisions across the island.
