00:00At the intersection of Cirey Mundo Avenue, Barangay Maybunga, Pasig City, a woman was crossing the road when she was caught by the CCTV camera.

00:12Suddenly, the cars rushed towards her.

00:15In front of a truck, she rolled over and fell down.

00:19The truck stopped because it felt like someone fell down here.

00:23Dead on the spot is a 62-year-old victim, a teacher.

00:27Multiple physical injuries, a head injury.

00:33But the most serious injury is the one on her chest because she was trapped.

00:39She was trapped in the beam portion of the vehicle.

00:44According to the driver of the truck, who is now being held by Pasig Police, he did not see the victim crossing the road.

00:49I did not notice that there was a person here. I just shouted that there was a person here.

00:55When I pulled over, I saw that there was a person underneath.

01:01According to Pasig Police, the victim was caught by the traffic light.

01:05She was taken to the nearest hospital for a check-up.

01:08She was taken to the hospital.

01:10As we can see, when the first passenger of the jeep moved,

01:17the truck also moved and she did not notice the victim crossing the road.

01:25But the driver should have seen the victim crossing the road.

01:29This truck was the one that hit the victim.

01:32Usually, this part of the truck is a blind side for the drivers.

01:37But because there is a mirror like this, which is called a ball mirror,

01:41the truck driver should have seen someone crossing in front of his truck.

01:45According to the police, it is possible that the driver of the truck was not looking at the ball mirror

01:51and he was more focused on the traffic light that was greenlighted.

01:55That is why he did not see the victim and he was hit.

01:58Because of the inattentive driving, it is still a reckless imprudence.

02:03There is still a chance of being caught.

02:04I took a left and right turn.

02:07But is it possible for Raymundo to cross your road even if there is no pedestrian lane?

02:12According to the Pasig Police, it is possible.

02:15There are traffic lights.

02:17If the signal is red or stop, the pedestrians are allowed to cross.

02:25The driver of the truck tried to arrange for the family of the victim

02:29but he did not agree and he decided to file a complaint.

02:33He refused to file a complaint to the family of the victim.

02:36The driver asked for forgiveness for what happened.

02:40I am sorry because I did not do it on purpose.

02:46It was an accident.

02:50It is hard to do that.

02:55I am very sorry to the family.

02:57For JIRMA Integrated News, I am Nico Jae.

03:00I am your witness.

03:30I am your witness.
