Yes, a classic case where the car driver didn't check their mirror before
merging.
Ironically, this stop (U Kříže) was rebuilt in order to provide a cycleway
between the platform and the footpath, replacing a motor vehicle lane
between the old platform and the footpath. Accordingly - and uncommonly for
a Czech system - motor traffic has thus been rerouted between the
platforms, sharing with the trams Melbourne-style. This has obviously
created a trap for the inattentive motorist.
