Re: Woman threatened at gunpoint after stolen car slams into Gold Coast tram

I imagine that the driver of the tram would have a number of concerns to
deal with in the aftermath of the collision: an immediate shock reaction, a
need to commuicate with tram operations and emergency services, a need to
ensure the tram was in a safe physical condition and a need to ensure the
safety of the passengers from road accident and physical threat. How would
we react under such circumstances?

wrap-up and didn't feature in any video footage
