This leaves me so unsettled. I know this area very well, and there are a lot of older Asian people who live around here. They get up early, go for a walk, and take the bus down to Chinatown to meet their friends/family.

I don't understand how at least two other cars drove past without even stopping or checking on her after being hit. I understand the panic that could happen when the driver hit her, but it's a human being. And then the other ones driving past, and let alone the second one that probably just drove over her and didn't even do anything about it. I don't care that it's rush hour and you're late for work. Be a human being and a good person and stop and check on the welfare of her, especially when she's lying in the middle of the road. If that were your family, would you have done the same thing?

I pray that the second driver is found or turns him/herself in. And as for the people that drove past, nothing can be done with them, but I don't see how they would be able to live with themselves knowing that they could have helped her and possibly even saved her before a second car drove over her. If that were me, I don't think I would ever be able to look someone in the face again and tell them that I drove away for any reason.

This is sad beyond belief. I'm absolutely infuriated with people and I feel utterly terrible for the family of this woman.
