An early morning collision involving two motor vehicles disrupted traffic in the Sea Cows Bay area of Tortola just after midnight. The incident took place along the main coastal corridor near the well-known Domino shed, directly adjacent to the access road leading to the Seventh-day Adventist School.
According to preliminary reports from the scene, both automobiles sustained significant structural damage as a result of the impact. Fortunately, initial assessments indicated that no one was injured during the collision. Officers from the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force quickly arrived on the scene to secure the area and assess the conditions.
To ensure the safety of other road users and keep nighttime traffic moving smoothly through the thoroughfare, responding officers instituted a temporary diversion, guiding motorists along the left side of the roadway while the damaged vehicles were inspected and cleared. The precise circumstances surrounding the crash remain unclear at this time.
It has not been confirmed whether investigating officers conducted any standard breathalyser examinations at the scene to evaluate driver sobriety. Police inquiries into the cause of the incident are ongoing as authorities work to piece together the events that led to the crash. Road safety continues to be an essential focus across the British Virgin Islands, particularly along the winding coastal roads during late-night and early-morning hours.
