Many secondary school students in Barrackpore, Moruga and environs missed Monday's CXC and CAPE examinations due to severe flooding in their communities.<br /><br />Some of the roads were impassable even to large vehicles, leaving students marooned in their homes with no way of getting out to sit the important final year exams.<br /><br />But as reporter Cindy Raghubar-Teekersingh tells us, there was one man who volunteered both his time and truck.<br /><br />And while there were some children he just couldn't reach, by midday, he was able to transport more than a dozen students on time, or just a little late to their exams.
