A woman fell into the path of an oncoming car after trying to duck a plant in southern China.

CCTV footage filmed in the city of Guangzhou City in Guangdong Province on October 9 shows a woman taking shelter from the light rain under the eaves of a building. When she tried to bend over and pass beneath a plant, she suddenly lost her balance and fell right into the car's trajectory. The car, which was moving at a regular speed, struck the woman, causing her to fall to the ground.

A companion walking ahead of the victim quickly turned back in horror and confronted the car driver, demanding, "How could you drive like that?". The visibly shocked driver responded, "It wasn't about how I drove. She bumped into my car herself."

Both parties subsequently called the police, and an investigation into the accident is currently underway.

10月9日，广东广州。因为天空飘着雨，一名女子沿着楼房屋檐行走，这时前方不远处过来一辆白色轿车，由于路面较窄，女子弯腰准备从绿植下面钻过，结果后退时身体突然失衡，被正常通过的轿车撞上瞬间倒地。女子走在前面的同伴赶紧折返查看，轿车司机也赶忙下车，同伴质问司机“你怎么开的车”，司机也诧异地说：“不是我怎么开的车，她自己撞到的。”
双方随后报了警，目前事故还在进一步调查处理中。
