Speeding is the main cause of the accident that took five lives. How long has the pothole been there that hasn't caused other accident like this one?

Where in the article that speeding was the cause of the accident ???

It clearly stated that the car was uncontrollable after driving in a pothole.

You can find this story in many newsprints. I read them all and the updates. 

Here is what Stabroek News said.

Information reaching Stabroek News said that the motor car, PPP 3394 was travelling east when it swerved from a pothole and collided with the paddy truck GZ 2763 which was travelling in the opposite direction.

As a result of the impact, two passengers were flung out of the car while three others were pinned in the vehicle.

If I was driving and see an incoming truck, why would I swerve into the truck to avoid a pothole? That's an instant death wish. I would rather go over the pothole and damaged the car to save the lives I am responsible for. If he was driving at a moderate speed, he would have been able to slow down quickly and avoid death.
