A motorcyclist was killed on Sunday evening after he reportedly collided with a car along the Access Road to the Berbice River Bridge in Region Six (East Berbice-Corentyne).

The dead man has been identified as Aubrey Sears of No.9 Village, West Coast Berbice (WCB).
Reports are that motor car PPP 2020 was heading east while the motorcyclist was proceeding in the opposite direction. The motorcyclist was looking backwards while riding, and he rode into the car, fell on the roadway and sustained injuries.
He was picked up and taken to the New Amsterdam Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
In March last year, a couple lost their lives following an accident which also occurred on the Berbice River Bridge Access Road. Speeding was allegedly the cause of that accident, as that driver had lost control of his vehicle and it had collided with a concrete culvert before ending up in a nearby trench.
