A man was killed after being struck by a vehicle along the Beetham Highway on Thursday morning, in an incident captured on the driver’s dashcam.

The video shows the vehicle travelling east along the highway on a largely empty roadway, while the westbound lanes heading into Port of Spain were congested with the usual morning traffic.

As the driver approached the overpass, the pedestrian was seen stepping from the median and into the path of a vehicle ahead. That vehicle was able to swerve and avoid him.
