A routine Friday stroll in Tel Aviv turned into a terrifying ordeal for Nesli Barda, a TV presenter and journalist, as she was walking with her six-year-old daughter and infant daughter in a stroller. While crossing the street on a green light, a motorcyclist approached them. Barda recounted that the rider saw the red light and them crossing but accelerated towards them instead of slowing down. She managed to pull the stroller away at the last moment, narrowly avoiding a serious accident. The motorcyclist did not stop to offer assistance or check on their well-being. Instead, he obscured his license plate with his hand to avoid traffic cameras and sped away, running the red light. Following the incident, Barda reported the dangerous driver to the police, requesting they review area security cameras to identify him. She is currently seeking information on whether the police have been able to track down the motorcyclist who endangered her and her daughters.
