Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
PHILIPSBURG, St. Maarten - Seemingly it was another busy night for the St. Maarten police force Wednesday and not so much of a good night for MP the Honorable Roy Marlin.
The MP who was driving his jeep into Pointe Blanch late Wednesday evening, in the vicinity of the entrance to the St. Maarten Harbor Facility, had an accident after he tried to avoid hitting a white Ford Explorer that was driving in-front of him at the time.
According to the MP, the white jeep suddenly stopped at which point he initiated an evasive maneuver to avoid hitting the jeep.
He maneuvered to the left while slamming the brakes of his vehicle.
His wheels hit the rocks located on the opposite side of the rode causing his black Hyundai Santa Fe jeep to over turn.
The MP was checked out by Ambulance personnel who arrived on the scene of the jeep crash on Wednesday evening. He was not injured.
Meanwhile the police had to deal with yet another accident on Wednesday evening involving a car that had over-turned on the ATH. Illidge Road.
The vehicle, a silver Toyota Corolla was at the time of the accident driving in the vicinity of the entrance to Claude Estate, headed in the direction towards Philipsburg when apparently the driver lost control of the car for unknown reasons.
The car rode the embankment of the road on the right and proceeded to turn over.
The driver was also not injured however the owner of the car who arrived on the scene of the accident a short while later was not pleased about the destruction of his car.
