Fair or
not? Cabby
also charged after woman gets hurt dashing in front of
taxi
德士电眼拍下女郎冲过马路被撞，司机来不及反应，女郎左踝扭伤，引起公众热议司机是否有错。
Stomper Chew's relative, a
cabby, was involved in a collision with this woman, who had
apparently dashed across a road into the path of his
taxi.
According to the Stomper, both
the cabby and the woman were charged by the traffic police for
careless driving and failing to keep a lookout for traffic
respectively in the wake of the incident.
The Stomper feels this is
unfair because the cabby was not to blame for the
collision.
Immediately after the accident
occurred, both the cabby and his passenger had alighted to render
assistance to the woman, who appeared to have suffered a sprained
ankle and was left limping.
The Stomper wrote:
"This incident happened in
January this year.
"As seen in the video, the
woman jumped over the road divider before bumping onto
cab.
"The woman was definitely not
watching out for moving vehicles before crossing.
"The driver is currently being charged
for careless driving, while the woman is being
charged for failing to look out for moving traffic.
"We've been trying to appeal
with the different departments but to no avail.
"Although we feel that this is
not fair, there are few options left.
"We hope that by sharing the
video, drivers out there will be more alert.
