Father drives injured children to hospital instead of waiting for ambulance

A traffic accident involving injuries occurred at the intersection of Carawaraweg and Schubappelweg in Willemstad, Curaçao, during the morning hours. Police Central received notification of the incident and dispatched a Mountain Unit to the scene to provide assistance. Rather than waiting for an ambulance to arrive, the father of two minor children involved in the accident took matters into his own hands and transported his injured children to a doctor himself. The decision highlights the urgency felt by the parent, possibly reflecting concerns about ambulance response times. Emergency units were still directed to the scene following the standard protocol. The intersection where the crash occurred is a known roadway in the Willemstad area. The current condition of the two children has not been specified in the available report.
