Speeding, and poor modern lighting one would assume, with the risk of too much alcohol or dope which must be considered as many of the islands poor are into both big styly.
The driver was not at fault, the man just jumped in his path. He was conscious any stayed several times that he was at fault.
I am sorry to say but you are generalising a lot of honest hard working folk who through not fault of their own are on the poorer side, I myself is someone who just about survives on what little i get, in, can confirm with all honesty i do not do drugs, drink alcohol, or smoke anything …apologise please.
I agree with the poor lighting however what a ridiculous judgemental comment. One does not simply “assume”, who knows what happened until its confirmed.
Are you poor and know that for yourself then? You’re in no position to judge anyone else, get off your high horse you absolute twat and go and smoke a spliff, might ground you and bring you back down to earth.
That person aziz or whatever he calls himself is proving yet again what an idiot he is
Raw nerves, one assumes, and the truly poor but honest needs no apologies from me as I did say ‘many’ NOT all.
Don’t know why some of you bother to post on here if all you want is FACT, too late to comment then unless we just tut, condone or sympathise, We are all allowed a theory, and drugs and alcohol are a massive issue on this Island. Most of it due to the charity kept lot on tax credits, subsidised rent and council tax, with one doing a few hours per week to keep the charity coming.
Az is a typical idiot with nothing better to do than deliberately provoke a reaction, no doubt he is enjoying the thumbs down and the comments.
Grow up Aziz.
