Toronto Police have charged the driver who hit to pedestrians in mid-town Toronto Wednesday.
The women were struck by a red Honda just after 8 a.m. at Bayview and Eglinton avenues area.
One of the victims is 61 and has life-threatening head injuries. The other female, 53, is expected to survive.
Sgt. Tim Burrows of traffic services said people should stop thinking they are superman and be more alert.
“This is a situation where someone or more than one person was not paying attention to their surroundings, was not aware of what was going on… it’s a collision… it’s completely preventable.”
The 44-year-old woman who was driving the Acura, has been charged with careless driving and failing to stop at a red light.
