Did she see the oncoming vehicle or not? That was the question on the lips of those gathered.
Some said she did. That she walked onto the road at the last moment, when the driver could not avoid her. Some said she did not. She appeared lost in thought and was walking head down. It was the screech of tyres that caused her to look up.
Some people were taking pictures, others were making videos. Almost all were posting the accident on social media.
It was the driver of a Beamer, that pulled over, that came to check her. On touching her, the prostrate figure stirred and pushed up to kneel.
"Who hit her?" The driver of the Beamer asked.
As one, eyes turned to the Benz that in a bid to avoid the girl had chosen an electric pole.
It's driver was still seated; neck bent at an unnatural angle.
