    This is no joke the driver need to be charged .no slow moving vehicle cannot get up on that platform .we are taking these situations to lightly. Proper investigation needto be carried out and I believe this would be done. The driver need to be taken into custody and do the necessary. I thinking about the children and elderly. I know no one was hurt but am sure that same thought is going through many of us what if my child was there or my grandmother who cant move to quickly. The police department need to get serious about vehicular accidents. I have watch over the last fifteen years the lawlessness that is taking place with vehicles .the bvi is still a bless place no matter what some would say.
