(WARNING! The video is graphic) A video circulating online shows residents standing near the roadside with trash bags as they wait for a garbage truck. A vehicle then appears to move onto the shoulder at high speed to pass traffic before hitting the woman and throwing her into the air.

The department said it would continue reviewing medical records related to treatments such as body sculpting, laser procedures, and Botox injections. Officials said they are checking whether the clinics collected advance payments, charged more than legally permitted, or created unauthorized fee items.

The Kaohsiung District Court found that the messages between Chang and the junior-high-school classmate included expressions of longing, references to meeting at a motel, and a late-night meeting near the woman’s home. The judge said the content was not consistent with ordinary joking between old classmates and was enough to show conduct similar to that of romantic partners.The Kaohsiung District Court found that the messages between Chang and the junior-high-school classmate included expressions of longing, references to meeting at a motel, and a late-night meeting near the woman’s home.

When the officers arrived, they found Yen sitting by the roadside, appearing dazed. Police said other road users had kept watch over him after he allegedly attempted to leave the scene. A search of the vehicle turned up one packet of amphetamine weighing 19.4 grams, two etomidate vape cartridges, and one bottle of etomidate refill liquid weighing 57.5 grams, police said. A saliva drug screening test showed positive results for methamphetamine and etomidate, indicating suspected drug use before driving.

In addition to criminal charges, police also issued traffic citations for drunk driving, hit-and-run, running a red light, and failing to stay in the proper lane. The violations carry combined fines that add up to NT$102,600, police said.

On Songyi Road (松藝路) in Niaosong District (鳥松區), cameras record when a vehicle enters and exits a 1.3-kilometer monitored section. If the time it takes to travel through the section shows the vehicle’s average speed was over the 50-kilometer-per-hour limit, the driver can be fined.

The dispute highlights a familiar problem behind Kaohsiung’s “pedestrian hell” label: even after a deadly crash, officials, residents, and businesses are still arguing over what counts as walkable public space, who is responsible for keeping it clear, and whether painted fixes can protect people when sidewalks are missing or compromised.

Police said driving while fatigued is believed to be the main cause of the crash, but a city inspection also pointed to a familiar mix of illegal scooter parking, limited pedestrian space, and road design problems around the site.

The woman the person investigating the accused had a close personal relationship with the officer and that the complaint was effectively suppressed,

The accused officer allegedly photographed a woman’s chest and underarms while handling a traffic incident. In another case the following year, prosecutors say he told a woman to remove clothing while claiming he needed to document injuries, then photographed her in a sports bra. In a separate incident, they say he secretly filmed a woman in a bathroom at the police station after taking her report.
