KEEP OFF OF TOLIANS. THAT’S THE WICKED, WORTHLESS SH** U ALL FOREIGNERS ACCUSTOM OF DOING WHERE U ALL COME FROM.
U ALL DRIVE FAST LIKE A SET OF IDIOTS, RUN DOWN PEOPLE AND THEN LEAVE THE SCENE.
ON ANOTHER NOTE, SOME PEOPLE CROSS THE ROADS CARELESSLY WITHOUT USING THEIR COMMON SENSE.
IT WAS 8:00 AT NIGHT SO SHE WOULD HAVE HAD TO SEE THE CAR LIGHTS, UNLESS SHE CROSSED ON A BLIND CORNER WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY FOOLISH.
PEDESTRIANS NEED TO BE MORE ALERT AND PUT THEIR SAFETY FIRST.
Did the news say who ?
Yall really need to stop assuming !
Speedy recovery to that lady and pray whoever hits her is found
At the same time when crossing on the cross walk people need to be very vigilant as some people do not stop even if the light is red
EVEN IF YOU SAW A KIA SOUL DRIVING CRAZY
HOW DO YOU KNOW IT WAS A KIA SOUL THAT HIT HER ???
ENGLISH IS VERY EASY !
So its acceptable to do a hit and run when you hit someone on a highway? what the actual &^%$ is wrong with you. Regardless of the situation, stop and check they're ok and offer help.
Moral of the story...pedestrians cross at you own risk.
You are an idiot of the highest caliber! You are also xenophobic with that slow comment black/white. Did the driver stop to see if he or she is fine or to call 911 ? This is not about who is wrong or right but about human decency. Hit and run maybe the norm in the rest of the world but it should never be tolerated in the BVI! Someone could have died, this lady may well have injuries that could plague her for the rest of her life and you chatting some crap about laws of the highway? Is there a flyover? Is there another way to get from one side of the highway to the other? I oftentimes see tourists scurrying for their lives across that highway. If this driver did not have a license or insurance then your is even more the irrelevant.
In the US Virgin Islands, try, and run someone over on a pedestrian cross walk!
Instant riches for the victim, in the massive amounts of lawsuits!
PEDESTRIANS, ALWAYS, HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY, REGARDLESS OF HIGHWAY, OR SIDESTREET!
Police officers have been known here to stop vehicles on the highway to allow for the safe passage of pedestrians!
No human body can compete with the 4000 pound tonnage of a car!
This country MUST DO MORE, to educate motorists on the rights of pedestrians!
You mean, this, is not such a thing in this land?
SHAME,SHAME, SHAME!!!
I see even some animals wait until it is safe to cross the road.
Also note all drivers must be very careful with children on the road and pedestrians on the cross walks.
