It
 was eleven in the night the other day. My friend Benjamin and I were 
driving back to his home in Bridgetown. During the course of our 
journey,we touched upon many topics of conversation. However, it was 
when we dodged a speeding truck that came charging towards us menacingly
 from the opposite direction and almost knocked us off the road that we 
got really shaken up!  As we gathered our thoughts together, Benjamin 
remarked. “We got saved by a whisker,man!”. Yes we were lucky that time.
 As we resumed our drive the conversation veered around the alarming 
increase in traffic and rampant rise road accidents of late. It has even
 been reported that drinking and driving is not illegal in Barbados 
either. No wonder the rise in accidents!
We
 drove into a lonely stretch of road which was barely lit. No sooner had
 we got over the shock of the jolt about twenty minutes ago than  a 
twenty wheeler from the right stormed in and tossed our cadillac like a 
match box. A few cartwheels of the car made our heads spin all the more.
