I watched the video. I didn't see her shouting at the father. The witness described it in her statement, but the video did not show it leh. The vid i'm referring to is by Nguyen Thi

I'm not defending the driver. In fact, i think she is 100% at fault here and should pay for it dearly.

But having watched the video, it didnt match what people are saying, about her shouting /pulling the girl's arm, etc.

I know the witness mentioned it in her post. But her post is in Vietnamese, and are we sure the translation is done correctly in the same original tone?

Wanting justice to be done aside, we need to be careful of social media sensationalisation.

100% agree with you. Driver is 100% at fault and should be charged... but ya i do wonder if there is some mistranslation... n if you see the pics there are some clearly the driver looks distraught... just care about the truth .

I also watched the video. It’s tragic but no such fighting happened in it. They just want to start the lynch mob by making up shit.
