10 月 19 日，在浙江省海宁市，一名 82 岁的老人横穿马路时被一辆小汽车撞飞，当场死亡。此事引发广泛关注。据目击者称，老人在穿过道路隔离栏后走向马路中央，随后与一辆驶来的黑色轿车相撞。另一段长达 16 秒的网传行车记录仪画面显示，事发当日早上 7 时 21 分，撞人后，轿车迅速驶离现场，老人被撞后躺在地上不能动弹，现场多名群众称其当场死亡。
对此，律师表示，双方负同等责任可能较妥。老人作为行人，应该遵守交通法规，避免横穿马路。而车辆驾驶员也应该保持警惕，注意观察道路情况，避免发生交通事故。
此事故引发社会广泛关注，许多网友对老人横穿马路的安全问题提出质疑。有人认为，老人年龄较大，应该给予他们更多的关爱和便利，而不是严加禁止。也有人认为，交通法规应该更加完善，对于行人横穿马路等危险行为应该有更明确的处罚规定。

An 82-year-old man was struck and killed by a small car while crossing the road in Haining city, Zhejiang Province, China on October 19th. The incident has attracted widespread attention. According to eyewitness accounts, the man crossed the road after passing through a road barrier, and then collided with a black car. A video recording of the accident, which lasts for 16 seconds, shows that the collision occurred at 7:21 a.m. on the morning of the incident. After the accident, the car quickly left the scene, and the man was lying on the ground and unable to move. Several bystanders at the scene said that he died on the spot.
According to lawyers, joint responsibility may be more appropriate in this case. The man, as a pedestrian, should comply with traffic regulations and avoid crossing the road. At the same time, the driver of the car should also pay attention to the road conditions and avoid accidents.
This incident has sparked a heated public debate, with many netizens questioning the safety of allowing elderly people to cross the road. Some people believe that the elderly should be given more love and convenience, rather than being strictly prohibited from crossing the road. Others believe that traffic regulations need to be more comprehensive, and clearer penalties should be imposed for dangerous behaviors such as crossing the road.
