Woman walks across the street and gets crushed by truck in hit-and-run. Mexico, 1 April 2024

Through social networks, a video was disseminated showing the exact moment in which a woman loses her life after being brutally run over by a dump truck that was circulating through the streets of the Tláhuac district in Mexico City, and what has caused the most indignation is that the person responsible fled, so the case has caused a great commotion on digital platforms.

These unfortunate events occurred around 11:40 a.m. on Monday, April 1 at the intersection of La Turba and Guillermo Prieto avenues in the La Draga neighborhood of Tlahuac, where a woman was about to cross the street, however, when she was right in the middle of the asphalt, she was brutally rammed by a dump truck.

In the powerful images broadcast on digital platforms it could be seen that the heavy unit dragged the young woman for several meters until it ran over her tires and finally unhooked her leaving her lying on the asphalt and the truck operator did not stop his march and fled the area at full speed.

These tragic events were witnessed by dozens of people who were in the area, who immediately requested the attention of the authorities. Some of the witnesses also indicated to the uniformed officers the characteristics of the unit that ran over the woman, which was the key to initiate the investigations.

It is worth mentioning that, despite the quick arrival of the emergency teams, nothing could be done to save the life of the 26 year old woman, and it took several minutes to locate some of her relatives so that they could take care of the funeral arrangements.

Through a press release, the Secretariat of Public Safety of Mexico City announced that after an effective investigation and support from C2 Oriente, the unit involved in these events was located in a property located on Tláhuac Avenue and Santa Cruz Street in the Santa Ana Poniente neighborhood, where a 27 year old man was arrested for his probable responsibility in the hit-and-run of the 26 year old woman.

The dump truck and the detainee were placed at the disposal of the authorities and it is expected that in the next few hours an agent of the Public Prosecutor's Office will define his legal situation, for now, the detainee will be treated as innocent until the authorities determine otherwise.

You don't just look left then right before walking. You look left, right, and left again because in the time it took you to look right is more than enough time for another vehicle to appear from a side-street or whatever. People never learn this, for some reason. Gambling a saved second or two against your life never made sense to me.

She didn't look right because that side of the road was one-way with traffic only coming from the left, which is where the truck came from. But she was stupid and didn't keep looking left, because the truck pulled out of a side street. She just figured that traffic would stop for her.

Kinda like the stupid pedestrian that I almost hit the other day. She had right of way, but I couldn't see her because of where she was coming from. She yelled at me that she had right of way. I yelled back "we'll put 'she had right-of-way' on your tombstone." :lol:

When walking across the street you should look left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left, right... until you're on the other side :marseylaugh:

Now you have me wondering why we don't just look right then left.

You look in the direction of traffic to make sure it's clear, then you look to the opposite side to make sure no dumbass is going the wrong way, then you check the direction of traffic again to make sure it's safe move, unless it's a two way street, then the look for opposite side oncoming traffic is just a normal check.

So In her case it would be left right left, and move, and maybe a moment to judge the speed of traffic, if she had been looking left, she would have had time to jump back, or press forward and hope for the best.. looking right, whatever was coming was unknown until she felt the tires crush her to death, and if her brain was untouched, a realization she was about to die

When I make a left turn driving a car I look right first for oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Then look left and if it's not clear I keep checking.

Once on Halloween I almost got ran over running around trick-or-treating houses

110 percent on her. She looked and saw the loud ass truck. But probably is used to everyone letting her walk first so they could look at that butt.

And that's only slightly a joke. Like you know how fucking loud those trucks get when they are getting from 1st to 3rd gear?

She was surprised the truck driver didn't let her slow walk her dumb ass at an angle across the street in no hurry.

SPLAT!

I live in a city and i always assume until proven otherwise every car wants to run me over. Until i see them stop, i have to assume they arent stopping. This belief has easily prevented me over from getting run over between 5-10 times at this point, which is scary considering i use marked crosswalks and always wear neon yellow safety shirts.

Though the girl was really stupid for not looking both ways, jaywalking at an angle, with no hurry, the truck driver is 100% still liable. Dumbass still thought he could get away. Girl paid with her life, but so will the truck driver for not fucking breaking, I mean what the fuck at least stop to see what happened. No this piece of shit just kept driving. What a fucking retard.

Looks more similar to a Hit and Didn't Know than a Hit and Run.

She looked to her left but she didn't check out her blind spot behind her, over her shoulder.

Put that together with a driver who also had her in his blind spot, or who saw her, flat out didn't give a fuck, and kept driving.

Only took me a few days into subbing to get my Andrew Tate moment.

It was math class and there was an eruption of talk about this 'entertainer'.

I stopped the whole class, moved quickly to the front and stood on a chair.

'Some things are more important than math, and I love math. But this is a learning emergency. Everyone. EVERYONE.

Who has heard of Andrew Tate? (all hands) Who thinks he's great? (1/2)

That's what I thought. Let me tell you something about this person you think is so great and make jokes about. He hurts people. Badly and in one of the worst ways. He enslaves humans. Young humans. He moved for easier victimization of teenagers who are still children. Takes away their humanity and rights over their own body. And he's in jail for now, but the way he hurt his victims will change their brain, their body, and their lives. I meet people in the ER who have been hurt in the way he thinks is funny and ok. None of this is funny and it is NEVER ok. I see the wreckage. I wake up to FIGHT the very evil that he puts in this world.

Math is important, but this is more important. I'm giving you a choice right now so listen up. Your heroes are YOUR choice. But know what you are choosing. And if you grow up continuing to idolize and emulate people like him, that's your choice. But know this. I'll still be out there and I will be fighting you. In courtrooms, police stations, and classrooms.

I will never be done fighting for ALL of you. I will never give up fighting for you and your world. You are young. You decide. You have time. You can change your mind a thousand times.

Either way, I'll be waking up and I WILL be there.'

bell rings

Silence. Mouths dropped. Eyes wide.

' You're dismissed. Enjoy your recess.'
