It is quite common to use baby strollers. After all, it is very convenient to use and bring your babies around. But seeing the way some parents or grandparents use the baby strollers over here in Shanghai is pretty shocking.

While waiting at the roadside for the traffic lights, I noticed an elderly couple, pushing a baby stroller, approach the traffic lights at the cross junction. They probably wanted to cross the road like me. They stopped briefly at the roadside as the lights were still red. But then the couple started to push the stroller onto the road while they waited on the pave way for the lights to turn green. The little baby was still sleeping in the stroller and the traffic was heavy!! If they had any common sense or regard for the baby’s safety, they should have waited with the baby stroller on the pave way.

I have seen this a few times in Shanghai and it’s quite nerve-wrecking. Can’t help but think it’s an accident waiting to happen.
