Minor injuries at the scene of an accident can become major injuries at the hospital once a person is fully examined. The police aren’t medical doctors and as such all injuries are treated the same. You can apply if you feel you can do things better, they need local police men.
Can’t blame the size of the car for this one. Inattention? Distraction? Check the phone record.
A wall suddenly jumped in front of the car!
That seems to be a frequent problem, along with utility poles out on walk-about.
“utility poles out on walk-about”
That is NOT a new problem in Bermuda. It has been a problem for decades!
