Quote:
Horrific footage has emerged of a woman obliviously using her smartphone unaware she is about to be hit and killed by a tram.
The pedestrian, who was standing on tram tracks, suddenly looks up but has no time to react or jump out of the way.
She was rushed to hospital in Moscow but died soon afterwards.
The tram had emerged from under a railway bridge and the female driver appears to see the woman late before trying in vain to stop.
The driver, who is in her 60s, desperately tries to slam on the tram's brakes but it is too late
the other woman is kind of dumb for standing in the middle of the road to begin with, couldn't that smartphone wait until she was not on the road anymore
Ugh I feel so bad for the driver who will probably feel guilty for the rest of her life. Obviously I feel bad for the woman who was killed too, but she really shouldn't have just been standing there in the middle of the road.
Such a tragedy. That tram driver looks mortified
