That looks more like she stepped backwards into the path of the vehicle than a deliberate collision.

    I thought up a few snarky comments but then decided to watch this full video. In this one you can't see the driver speed away like in the full original clip. So, at least from other clips, no this doesn't look like an accident at all because the driver immediately speeds away. Since this video only shows the freeze frame of impact, it might look a bit more like an accident.

    I saw the other clip above this one in my feed. Don't have a link though, sorry.

    The driver doesn't even slow down, they speed up instantly when she's hit.

    Probably why your comment was met with negativity.

    Have a nice day 👍

    The driving away thing could be explained by the very large, potentially hostile crowd nearby.

    Also, some people here just cannot handle different opinions from theirs. I'm disappointed, but not surprised by the reaction.

    It's never too late to see an optometrist

    It's a real shame you need to resort to insults whenever someone says something you don't like.

    You'll grow up one day.
