I love how everyone is just assuming it’s the drivers fault as if people cross the stress like they are car proof . Half of them don’t even look up from their phones. Not saying that’s the case but don’t blame the driver til you know the story

@mattinoldcity thank you! People always go to speeding but impact from falling the wrong way down steps can kill you for example. So any impact from a car at the right angle can in fact kill you

No one knows what happened other than a woman was struck by a car and passed away. We don’t know speed, who had the right of way, nor what exactly killed her. Chill the heck out until we get more info. Prayers to her family. 🙏🏾

Agreed.

They just reported on the news that the driver had the green light and witnesses report he didn’t appear to be speeding. The woman ran out in front of a bus to cross to cross the street on a red light but wouldn’t have been able to see any traffic in the lane next to the bus. That’s when she was hit. This was a tragic accident, stop being so quick to blame drivers for everything. Again, prayers to her family. 🙏🏾
