On Thursday, the 13th of November, around 5:20 PM, the central control room received a report of a collision with injuries on John E. Mars Road on Sint Eustatius. Upon arrival, the officers found that the collision had occurred between a scooter and a car. The driver of the scooter was injured after the car reversed and collided with the scooter that was behind the car.
In accordance with the “botsen is blazen” policy, both drivers were given a breathalyzer test. The alcohol level test showed that the driver of the car had consumed alcohol, but not more than the legal limit. The driver of the scooter did blow above the legal limit, but due to the priority of medical care, she was not arrested. However, the driver of the scooter was unable to show a driver's license and was fined for this.
