Main road between Discovery Bay and Runaway Bay

Main road between Discovery Bay and Runaway Bay

"Who needs a wrecker? Not the driver of this car who found that his vehicle had gone off the narrow, it not so straight main road, between Discovery Bay and Runaway Bay on Ash Wednesday. But by the time he had discovered that there was neither serious injury nor serious damage, he discovered something else. He found that the old-time Jamaican community spirit which constrains people to help one another is alive and well, even if it sometimes appears that one has to leave Kingston to locate it. Willing hands surrounded the hapless car and within minutes had put it back on the winding and narrow road again."
