BIG Smith News Watch learnt that the crash occurred in the vicinity of Guyana Defence Force Base Camp Seweyo.

We were told by police sources that the truck which was facing a Georgetown direction, might have developed mechanical  problems earlier and was parked on the shoulder of the road.

It is unclear if there were any reflective gears to the back of the truck to alert other road users of its parked presence.

Most of the coastland has been experiencing unusually thick fog for past few hours making it almost impossible to drive along the roadways as visibility is extremely poor.
