It happened in Mexico, where two girls seriously injured after a car accident took a selfie on the side of the road waiting for help.
Having miraculously escaped death after a terrible road accident, they found the desire and the way to take a selfie. The image taken in Mexico of two bloodied women, seriously injured and sitting on a pavement intent on taking a photograph after being involved in a crash in the Lomas del Mirador neighborhood of the city of Cuernavaca.
The accident occurred on Saturday evening: in the photo taken by a passer-by you can see two girls sitting on the edge of a road with smartphones in their hands, intent on taking a selfie while all around the other occupants of the crashed car were intent on calling the police and ambulance. Meanwhile, the car they were traveling in was overturned in the middle of the road with its windows broken. The police suspect that the crash occurred due toexcessive alcohol intake by the person behind the wheel.
According to what local newspapers report, both girls involved in the selfie suffered serious injuries and were taken to hospital together with the other three occupants of the car. Details of the incident have not been released and Mexican authorities are still investigating, but there has been a heated debate online about the “selfie scene”: “I’ve always wondered why there is such a constant need to take a photo of everything we do. We are reaching a ridiculous and exaggerated level just to get attention,” wrote one user, while others also bluntly called the decision to take a self-portrait after a serious accident “stupid”.
