I think it's clearly her fault. You're not meant to run across the road, also she is supposed to stop at the central traffic island.

I do hope she wasn't seriously hurt.

I agree she didn't do what she was supposed to do and I feel bad for the driver but as much as she was supposed to stop and make sure the road was clear he was supposed to slow right down coming to a zebra crossing and make sure no one was trying to cross. It will more than likely end up falling on him because drivers (rightly or wrongly) usually have to be more responsible than pedestrians on the road (here anyway)

Yep I don't know the rules of driving but slowing down coming to a zebra crossing makes sense, so I guess yea he's ultimately to blame.

Yeah especially at a crossing like this which is always gonna be constantly busy, she was very careless but he should have been slowing down anyway which would have given him time to react to her crossing the road especially when as Ammi mentioned she crossed from the other side of the road
