hansgruber Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 It's one of those cases where the mother was preoccupied. Daughter wandered out from the Shanties and onto the road. It was a sea gypsy child so it's common to see them wandering around unaccompanied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the flip side, it is also very common to see big buses and all other vehicles speeding there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I understand that she was crushed by a bus. But I wonder where? Was the kid alone on on the road, was she crawling behind the bus on a parking place etc?

Kids from the sea gyspy village roam solo. It's common. They beg for money or help people park and ask for money. 54 minutes ago, happy chappie said: Errrr by a bus....sorry vacuum but I couldn't resist that one.the real question is how the hell was she able to be left unattended.i see kids in my village of maybe 3-4 yrs old running loose but a 16 month old is neglect in my eyes. Sea gypsies are gypsies. Their way of life is very different to village kids. They roam that area unattended at all hours. Had some come in last night at baan Rimlay restaurant trying to sell flowers. She would have been 3 years old and it was 9.30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you imply the bus driver did it on purpose? If you knew the area, the sea gypsy village is right up against the road, no footpath. The children wander that area begging, playing around the street and fish market unaccompanied. It's a busy tourist area and no place for kids in rags to be running around. Place blame on the parents, not the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
