In all seriousness someone just passed away don’t make it about politics
in the video the witnesses say she wasn’t wearing a helmet, collided with a scooter and hit her head. and we see NO BUS in the video. so i think the citizen title might be inaccurate. the bus would have been stopped, right?
It was a box truck and he kelp going never stoped
the lack of empathy people on here have these days because they are addicted to only interacting through a screen. crazy.
Accidents happen all the time, let’s not be disrespectful to the deceased.
