To­ba­go Cor­re­spon­dent

Three women were in­jured in a car crash along the main road in Stud­ley Park around 12.20 pm yes­ter­day.

Ac­cord­ing to re­ports, a Maz­da hatch­back car­ry­ing two women was trav­el­ling east when it sud­den­ly veered in­to the west­bound lane and col­lid­ed head-on with a Mit­subishi Lancer dri­ven by an­oth­er woman.

The im­pact de­ployed the airbags in both ve­hi­cles. The Lancer’s dri­ver suf­fered the most se­ri­ous in­juries. She com­plained of chest pain to first re­spon­ders and had a cut to her mouth af­ter hit­ting the steer­ing wheel.

The Maz­da’s dri­ver suf­fered a leg wound and was shak­en by the crash. Her pas­sen­ger was not se­ri­ous­ly in­jured.

Passers-by as­sist­ed the in­jured women be­fore emer­gency ser­vices ar­rived and took them to hos­pi­tal. Fire­fight­ers al­so at­tend­ed the scene.
