SOME HIGHWAYS ACROSS Barbados are still pitch black at night.
Road safety officials have already noticed a marked increase in vehicular accidents for 2017, including a record number of fatalities in the first three months of the year.

She is also pleading with Government to fast-track the repairs of lights, especially along the troublesome ABC Highway.
