The Gendarmerie registered another road death on St. Martin roads when a young man was killed in a scooter accident in La Savane on Friday afternoon. According to preliminary information from the Gendarmerie, the accident was caused by a car driver either not indicating their intention to turn left, or not seeing the scooter.

As a result, the scooter crashed into the car as it was making the turn. Both the car and the scooter were travelling in the same direction, towards Grand Case from Marigot.
