My family saw me 'drenched in blood': Girl who was run over by a taxi when she was 9

On Feb 9, 2024, Nurshafira Ariana Norazmi was run over by a taxi when crossing Bukit Panjang Road at the junction with Gangsa Road. She was 9 years old when it happened. The green man signal was on. Yet the taxi went over the crossing and over Nurshafira. Amazingly, Nurshafira was quickly back on her feet, even though she had suffered multiple injuries, including a deep wound to her left arm. Now 11, Nurshafira, and her father have chosen to talk about the incident in public for the first time.
