A pensioner was knocked over by a reversing car as she walked down the road.

The white Nissan Qashqai was seen going backwards down the one-way residential street.

The elderly lady was strolling down the road facing any oncoming traffic.

But the reversing SUV came up behind her and knocked her to the ground.

Thankfully she was unhurt and sat up on the tarmac as a pair bystanders rushed over to help her.

The driver moved the car forward slightly.

Two women got out of the Qashqai, firstly one from the passenger side, then the driver.

The horror moment was captured in a 25-second video from a CCTV camera on a neighbouring house.

It happened just before 12:30pm on Sunday (5 May) in Southall, West London, as reported on Need To Know.

The four of them checked she was okay and helped her up as the clip came to an end.

But locals were divided on who was at fault.

One – named Harminder – said: “One way road, so not sure why the driver is reversing.

“But what on earth is the person doing walking on the road there is a pavement.”

Another – called Ahmed – added: “Her fault, what’s she doing walking in the middle of the road?”

And Sidhu claimed: “The driver is at fault for neglecting to check the mirrors.”
