I witnessed this actual accident and the whole event was quite surreal. After she was hit everyone just stood around like penguins. It was disturbing to see the true nature of people in life and death situations. I tried to help her that day along with a few others including a doctor who was luckily passing by. We were telling her she’d be fine and the doc supported her neck and asked her a few questions. She had an egg sized bruise on her head, blood on her face and trivial cuts here and there. Eventually an ambulance came, assisted her and took her to the Royal Sussex county hospital.
What I’m left not knowing is whether she survived or received any serious injuries. I hope she recovered swiftly and abandoned the apparent idiots she had been associating herself with.
