  1. The driver is at blame people are also responsible for their own safety and she knows that cars take rights at corners she should have looked she's old enough to know better

  2. These people are how old and she still does Not know how to cross the street. For reals people just because the light turns green doesn't mean it's safe to cross an intersection. People must Always make sure it's safe to cross the street. She put herself in harms way like a brainless idiot!!! I wish her the very best. You can't fix stupid!

  3. Ok the truck messed up but please, who teaches these pedestrians to cross streets in the US??????? Loook and cross, not hard to be aware of your surroundings and backing up if a car is driving on you. How can you blindly walk straight and assume everyone will stop for you???

  4. Dont ever just assume people are metal stable and will stop for you. Always look 1st. You'd be surprised how many people driving actually want to hit you.

  5. Seriously, clear the snow off your car. Here's a list to make it easier:
    1. Windshield
    2. Driver and Passenger side windows at least.
    3. Rear window.
    4. Taillamps.
    5. Headlamps, especially when still snowing.

    And the roof if you can and have time. That snow either lumping off or feathering off is a hazard to the car behind you.

  6. Sitting up higher, and having snow left over thats covering those blindspots; spots that you have that look downward from that upper angle is risky business

  7. Serves her right for walking across the street. Get a car lady. Can’t afford one? Too bad so sad. Get out of the way of people who can afford them. That was my impression of how Trump and Republicans and Trump voters sound when they leave comments on Youtube videos. I hope she is okay. I hope she’s back on her feet soon. 🙏

  8. Even if you’re a pedestrian and have the right of way, you’re at fault if you get hit as well, because if you aren’t paying attention to the ignorance of the drivers in their cars, you have nobody but yourself to blame for not being able to save yourself if it were possible.

    This lady didn’t look both ways. She clearly heard the truck’s engine, because who can’t hear a truck’s engine when it’s literally right beside you? Things aren’t adding up. Why aren’t we talking about her own mistakes that led to her getting hurt?

  9. Ah the white collar got to prove I’m manly truck. If you actually need a pickup wtf would you want the tailgate to be shoulder height.

  10. His Daddy prolly bought him that truck , bastard prolly grew up pampered , fk the snow on my windshield these peasants roaming the streets are so annoying
