Bretnol Greenidge, 32, died in an accident on the eastern carriageway of Takuba Public Road, Meadow Brook, Georgetown, on Saturday.

The crash involved a Nissan Note, license plate PYY 3577, driven by a 17-year-old unlicensed driver from Meadow Brook Drive, and a red 110cc Haojue motorcycle (CL 2067), owned by Greenidge of Bamboo Drive, Meadow Brook.

According to a police report, the car was travelling south along the eastern side of the eastern carriageway, while Greenidge was heading north on the western side—without wearing a helmet.

The teenage driver alleged that Greenidge was swerving when he lost control after sliding on a patch of sand.
