Tram hit a car so the line is stopped for the time being ![image](https://forumosa-12829.kxcdn.com/images/transparent.png)

Edit:  
Can add a little more info as I’m home,  
Happened around 2pm at the turning just after Dream Mall. Looks like a car decided to turn right on a red, major dent on the drivers side door (and probably wet his seat).  
Police on the scene no ambulance and people all walking around, so looks like no major injuries.

I think they have done well to go so long, the trams in Europe seam to have a lot more accidents. I think last year Sheffield U.K. had two at the same place within a month.

Didn’t look like it, the person who I assume was the driver of the car was walking back and forth between the police and the car.

I agree. They have not hit many cars, or better yet few people which is amazing on the harbor/water front areas with many people walking there. Just wish people/drivers would act in kind on the roads and make it easy(ier) to drive here. After 10 days driving in Japan, it’s return special Taiwanese way of driving.

I like that way of describing it, it’s nowhere nearly as bad as some countries, but by no means is it a relaxing thing to do.

Interesting way to take to photo, better than on the tracks. I guess the carriages will not touch him when they pass.
