Láska z tramvaje. Před osmi lety řidič srazil dívku, dnes spolu mají dvě děti
Psal se 4. duben 2012. Tehdy třiadvacetiletému řidiči tramvaje Vítu Malému zbývalo do konce směny pár desítek minut. S tramvají číslo 22 po páté hodině odpolední vjížděl do zastávky Břevnovský klášter. Naproti na zastávce stála také tramvaj, tak raději přibržďoval a zvonil. Přesto mu do dráhy vstoupila rusovlasá dívka. A reakce Víta Malého? Prošlápnul brzdu až do podlahy, zvonil a doufal, že neuslyší ránu. Ta ale nakonec přišla.

Malxe
Malxe (Lower Sorbian Małksa) is a river in Brandenburg, Germany. Due to open pit lignite mining, its upper course and lower course have been separated. The upper course, which is also referred to as Malxe-Neiße-Kanal, leads from Döbern along Forst (Lausitz) to Briesnig, where it discharges into the Lusatian Neisse. The Malxe proper, the former lower course, starts at the western edge of the Jänschwalde open pit mine, in Heinersbrück, and flows through Peitz to Schmogrow-Fehrow, where it joins the Hammergraben, forming the Großes Fließ.
