A Melbourne mother who was knocked over outside a shopping centre by youths on motorbikes has an unsurvivable brain injury, her husband says.
Andrea Lehane was struck while walking across a pedestrian crossing at the Carrum Downs Regional Shopping Centre car park on Hall Road on Wednesday afternoon at about 5.10pm.

Her husband James issued a statement via radio station 3AW, saying the 34-year-old mother of two's organs would be donated in a final act of giving.
"On Wednesday afternoon, my family's lives changed in an instant from a careless and avoidable accident," the man said.
Mrs Lehane is the mother of two children, aged two and three, and her family is reportedly keeping a bedside vigil at Alfred Hospital.

She was struck by the second motorbike in the group. (9NEWS)
Security video released by Victoria Police yesterday showed the shocking moment she was struck down on the pedestrian crossing.
The rider of the motorbike and his passenger were also thrown from the vehicle, before they fled along with two others in their group.
Victoria Police today called on the men to own up to the "callous" incident and to come forward.
"We believe these people are local," Detective Inspector Bernie Rankin said.

Up to five people were riding the mini bikes. (9NEWS)
"There will be people in the Carrum Downs area who know who is responsible for this.
"I think it would reflect better on them if they showed some remorse and gave themselves up to the local police station."
Det. Insp. Rankin was in no doubt those involved knew the seriousness of the incident.

Police are appealing for information. (9NEWS)
"They certainly saw the event unfold," he said.
"Everyone in that group was aware what happened."
Det. Insp. Rankin said police believed the group was involved in another disturbing incident in the moments before hit and run.
He said the motorcyclists had engaged a cyclist in a game of "chicken" before speeding away.

I feel for the loss of the mother run down by idiots on monkey bikes. A stupid and a waste of a person. But from the vision i have seen on the news it would appear she had no idea of what was going on around her. Yes the people on the bikes were illegal etc. But there are many reasons why things happen. If you think you can walk around without any apparent understanding of you're surrounding it will end not well. We are all told to look out. It is a sad loss of life. Should the people on the bikes be charged yes. But in this case the message of personal awareness has been lost.
Sorry for the families involved.

So your saying when crossing a pedestrian crossing and a car stops and gives way to you and then some hoon comes and undertakes a stationary car that has stopped in front on it's left and hits someone, the victim is supposed to keep looking all around then for these senarios.
The hoon had no reason to even be on the road on an unlicensed bike.

Next we have people saying oh the hoons were just letting of steam, you know how it is. School holidays out have a bit of fun

There was a news flick of a light plane landing on a road and cross through an intersection, if it had of hit a car , do we say car driver should be aware of his surroundings and occasionally look up in to the air.

My mother lives in Carrum Downs, she built a new house there 25 odd years ago.
So far she has had some one crash into a tree in her nature strip, and had a fatality 2 doors up where the hoon killed his girlfriend crashing into a neighbors fence. All this from Hoons. She has burn out tyre tracks in front of her house and she is not on a main road

Maybe when your car gets stolen or broken into it will be your fault for not taking note of your surroundings .
Id like to see the police report on that

i do sympathise however you should always been looking out, no matter what situation.

someone could have a heart attack while driving, not stop, etc. unfortunatly it's very common

Looks like they have a few of them now. Poor family and children so young.

Nothing to say. Little ****s need sorting out.

To say she should have been looking is a bit rich....of course she should, and probably did most of the time. The poor lady may have let her guard down for a minute, maybe distracted by the reason she was heading into the shops. I let my guard down once, and got distracted. I think it was back in June 1987 but luckily nothing happened. To have it happen to her at the exact time a moron is hooning up the inside on a mini bike is a tragic case of wrong place, wrong circumstances and plain bad luck. We've established in many threads on here lately that there is a never ending supply of complete retards doing their best to do the wrong thing and kill innocent bystanders in the process. The blame is squarely with them.

Very sad , they turned off her life support

Little ferals need a good kicking.
