ASSESSMENT OF DAMAGES
Sykes J (Ag)
This assessment has its genesis in an accident that
occurred on July 13, 1999 on the Salt River Main Road in
the parish of Clarendon. Young Miss Penny-Ann Golding, a
bartender, received injuries after a truck hit the car in
which she was traveling. The car in which Miss Golding was
a passenger had pulled over to the left side of the road
(i.e. its correct side) . The truck was on the same side of
the road as the car and traveling very quickly. The
collision was inevitable. Judgment in default of appearance
was entered against both defendants.
