GREEN ISLAND, Hanover — Director of the Road Safety Unit in the Ministry of Transport and Mining Kanute Hare has again lashed out at users of the road, this time motorcyclists in western Jamaica, for their reckless conduct.

Hare's broadside follows the death of three men who succumbed to injuries they sustained during a head-on collision involving two motorcycles, which subsequently burst into flames along the roadway here Friday night.

For instance, Hare noted that the two motorcycle operators were driving in the middle of the road, a custom he noted is rampant in Westmoreland and Hanover.

He made a very bad decision – both motorcyclists made decisions that were perilous – the driver of the Happy World motorcycle, he wheeled the bike in the middle of the road.

We want to forge an alliance, we want to forge a contract, we want a covenant with our churches to come let us use our pulpit also for road safety,” Hare appealed.
