A 33-year-old domestic worker was knocked down by a vehicle in Central on Hong Kong Island while crossing the road on Sunday.
The incident occurred at 9am when a 41-year-old local man surnamed Cheung was driving along Kennedy Road towards Wan Chai and the maid suddenly crossed the road – only to be hit by Cheung’s car, Oriental Daily reported.
The maid was knocked to the ground. But a woman passing by immediately ran up and helped her.
Paramedics arrived and sent the maid to the hospital. She was found to have suffered an ankle twist and a bone fracture.
The accident was captured by a dashboard camera on a taxi that was behind Cheung’s car. The video clip shows the maid stepping off the kerb in a bid to cross three lanes but being hit by a small white car.
The taxi driver said the maid was still conscious after being knocked over and quickly yelled for help.
He said there were many people who didn’t follow traffic rules when crossing the road around that area.
The identity and nationality of the maid was not known at the time of going to press.

Parang abnormal ka mkpag comment…
I mean sa kalsada.
Accidents happen anytime but Many of us don’t follow the traffic rules kaya tayo n naaksidente sa kalsa. Kung nakasakay ka, puwede mo siguro sabihin na aksidente yon. Hindi mo yan masasabi na aksidente kasi tumawid ka sa kung saan. Kung sa crossing road ka dadaan at hintayin ang green light bago ka tatawid eh di walang problema. Gamitin ang utak. Sa crossing road nga kahit hindi pa naka green light ay cge pa rin tayo.
Ingat lang tayo sa pagtawid mga kababayan walang tatawiran dyan kaya pagtumawid ka its your own risk kaya pag holiday maraming nangyayaring naaksidente sa pagtawid sa kalsada dahil sa atin kapababayaan so ingat talaga huwag magmamadali sa pagtawid kon walang pedestrian lane…dobleng ingat lang po
Meron bang gusto sa accidents? Wala naman and pagkakaalam ko …Backus lahat tayo nag iingat para mapabuti…
Wala po tyo sa pinas. Sa pinas mga DRIVERS takot sa mga taong tumatawid..dto sa abroad dapat matakot tyo sa mga drivers..kase dto rules is rules..
There is no traffic light or pedestrian around that area most of the people crossing that road are domestic helpers going to Church to attend Holy Mass every sunday
Ehm Zhel bunso si crizel po ang na hit
