Man arrested for DUI after three car pile up

(CNS): Police have now charged a man with driving under the influence following a major three car smash on Shamrock Road in Lower Valley on Wednesday evening which caused disruptions for vehicles travelling to the eastern districts last night. The male driver who was heading west struck two eastbound vehicles when his car veered into the opposite carriageway near Hibiscus Gardens at around 7pm. Police revealed that the drivers of the two vehicles which were heading east were both taken to the George Town hospital but were released following treatment. The driver of the westbound vehicle was arrested and later charged with DUI. (Photo by Dennie Warren Jr)

Meanwhile, police were asking drivers on Thursday morning to be cautious in the wet weather as some were not taking account of the conditions as police had received a number of reports of vehicles skidding – particularly near the roundabout near Britannia.
