An En­gi­neer with the Pro­gramme for Up­grad­ing Roads Ef­fi­cien­cy Unit (PURE) un­der the Min­istry of Works is the coun­try's lat­est road fa­tal­i­ty vic­tim.

She has been iden­ti­fied as Ja­nine Carr-Weekes, 43, of Lime Boule­vard West, San­ta Rosa Heights in Ari­ma. She was fond­ly called Ni­na.

Carr-Weekes, the moth­er of two, was cur­rent­ly on va­ca­tion leave and was due to leave the coun­try to go to Flori­da on Wednes­day for a few days of recre­ation­al pur­pos­es and re­lax time.

Ac­cord­ing to a po­lice re­port, Carr-Weekes was dri­ving her grey Toy­ota Hilux when it crashed in­to a light pole along the Churchill Roo­sevelt High­way in Trinci­ty in the vicin­i­ty of Pop­eye's Fast­food out­let. The in­ci­dent oc­curred short­ly be­fore 5 pm on Tues­day.

She suc­cumbed to her in­juries on the scene de­spite ef­forts by passers-by and para­medics to have CPR done.

Speak­ing with the Guardian Me­dia on Wednes­day af­ter­noon, Carr-Weekes' moth­er, Lynette Carr was in­con­solable.

She said her daugh­ter went to Trinic­i­ty to get her hair braid­ed in prepa­ra­tion for her trip, "I saw her af­ter 8 am yes­ter­day (Tues­day) and she told me she was go­ing to get her hair done. She came back home but I wasn't there and left again then I got the news of her death."

Lynette said her daugh­ter was a sin­gle-par­ent of two chil­dren ages 19 and 15 and was look­ing for­ward to see her 19 year old start Uni­ver­si­ty to pur­sue med­i­cine.

"She had goals and one of it was to get a house which she did right next to me here. She was a kind heart­ed in­di­vid­ual who was al­ways obe­di­ent to me, " Lynette said.

Lynette said they are Je­ho­vah Wit­ness­es and she be­lieves that her daugh­ter, the on­ly daugh­ter of four chil­dren is "rest­ing peace­ful­ly."
