In Buenos Aires, a man was almost run over by a train because he was walking while using his cell phone. This type of distraction is so common that it has even earned a nickname. They are called “smombies,” which in Portuguese translates to “smartphone zombies.” In Brazil, we tend to worry more about muggings. But collisions, falls and other accidents are also a constant danger. #smombies #cellphone #zombies www.dw.com/brasil www.twitter.com/dw_brasil www.instagram.com/dw.brasil www.facebook.com/dw.brasil
