A horrific video has been doing rounds on social media, showing a woman hit by not one but two motorbikes on a busy China road. The hit-and-run video shows the woman lying on the road as many vehicles pass by without anyone actually helping the victim.
The sad accident captured by CCTV cameras shows the woman crossing the busy road when the first motorcycle hits her. The impact is such that the biker too fell down along with the woman. The footage shows the driver inspecting the woman, who shows clear signs of pain, but flees from the sight within few seconds, while she is left to suffer.
In less than a minute, another bike runs over her and escapes from the scene, without even stopping to check on her. A car right behind the second bikes stops not to help her but just dodge her and head on.
As the woman writhes in pain in the middle of the busy road, the nearly 2-minute video clip shows many vehicles passing by. Even pedestrians crossing the road ignore her, turning blind to the accident.
According to a report by the South China Morning Post, the woman has miraculously survived the double trauma. The report adds that the accident occurred in the first week of November in Leshan, Sichuan province, at around 7pm, according to local news portal Leshan.cn.
The report adds that the woman’s family said she is not in a critical state. However, there were no mention of her injuries.
