A transatlantic romance ended in a tragedy when a 23-year-old American woman looked the wrong way while crossing a Salford road before being hit by two cars, an inquest has heard.
Used to traffic travelling on the right side of the road - instead of left as in the UK - Selena Mystera Meyers was seen to be looking away from the Skoda she walked into the path of on January 26, 2021 in Worsley Road, near its junction with Walker Road in Eccles.
She was then also hit by a Renault Clio coming in the opposite direction. The tragedy happened on a 'misty' night when there was fine rain falling and visibility was poor, coroner Simon Nelson was told at the Bolton hearing.
