A severe traffic collision on Reading Main Road in St. James, Jamaica, resulted in two drivers sustaining significant injuries on Tuesday morning. The incident involved a head-on collision between a Honda Integra and a Toyota Probox, causing both vehicles to be forcibly ejected from the roadway.
Emergency response teams from the Jamaica Fire Brigade (JFB) and the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) were dispatched to the scene following reports of the crash. Preliminary investigations suggest the vehicles were traveling in opposite directions when the impact occurred.
One driver became trapped beneath his vehicle due to the force of the collision and required assistance from bystanders to be extricated. Medical personnel confirmed he suffered multiple broken limbs alongside additional trauma. The second motorist sustained lacerations that resulted in substantial bleeding at the scene.
Both injured individuals received immediate first aid before being transported to a nearby medical facility for comprehensive treatment. Authorities have launched a full investigation to determine the precise circumstances that led to the accident, including potential factors such as road conditions, vehicle mechanics, and driver behavior.
