On Wednesday, 64-year-old lawyer Farid Uddin was crossing the road through broken grilles of a road divider in the capital’s Shyamoli Road 3, when a truck crushed him after he hit his head and fell to the ground, according to CCTV footage. The very next day, people of all ages and social classes were seen doing the exact same thing, even though there is a footbridge not far from the spot. With the lockdown in place, heavy vehicles often zoom through the rather empty streets, and such reckless jaywalking bears testament to the level of traffic awareness among people. The photo was taken yesterday. PHOTO: ANISUR RAHMAN
