Shame Of Drivers Ignoring Injured Woman
Security cameras have captured scores of drivers ignoring a woman laying injured by the side of the road.
The shameful scenes show a series of cars passing by the woman as she lay face down.Some of the motorists even swerved to avoid the woman rather than stop to help.
Police believe the 25-year-old female, not yet named, may have been attacked before staggering to the spot in Sidcup, Kent, and collapsing.
They have called on drivers who failed to stop to come forward.
A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman said: "We are reiterating appeals after a woman was found assaulted in the Sidcup area.
"She was taken to a south London hospital, where she is now in a stable condition."
A spokeswoman for Victim Support branded the incident a "sad sign of today's society".
She went on: "It is dreadful that so many people would drive past without helping.
"You would have thought at least one would have pulled over to see how she was.
"This was in a busy street in the middle of the day."
Anyone who may have seen what happened is urged to contact Bexleyheath police station on 020 8284 9131.
