Out of control vehicle slams 4 others
The accident happened sometime around 3:15 pm today September 16, 2014 and it left persons nearby in shock to see the impact of the collision on the other vehicles.
When Virgin Islands News Online arrived on the scene, the vehicles were still in the position they were after the impact and Police were carrying out investigations. One of the vehicles hit was shifted so far that its front wheels ended up in the gutter over the curb.
Police on the scene would not comment except to confirm that there were no injuries to anyone as a result of the accident.
One eyewitness said that he was in the area when he heard the high revving of a vehicle’s engine and wondered “who was playing the fool.” Then he said he saw the vehicle rush forward in a high speed hitting one parked opposite it and setting off a chain reaction hitting three other vehicles.
The man said that from his analysis of the situation he surmised that the female driver of the errant vehicle must have had the vehicle in neutral and revved the engine when she put it in gear sending it forward uncontrollably.
One man who works in a nearby building said that one of his colleagues called him outside telling him his vehicle had been hit. When he came out he saw the extensive damage to his vehicle.
