A Polish Twitch streamer has been banned after she allegedly drove over a dog while distracted by her phone.
On February 17, Twitch streamer ‘sidneuke’ was driving in a car and talking to her chat when she picked up her phone.
In a split moment, something could be heard hitting her car, prompting the shocked streamer to pull over and inspect the damage.
After doing so, an animal could be heard whimpering in the background, leading sidneuke to unbuckle her seat belt and get out of her vehicle.
Shortly after the incident, Twitch banned the streamer, likely for distracted driving, as we’ve seen the platform suspend others for looking at their phone while on the road.
It’s not clear if the ban is permanent, but at the moment, her account reads, “This channel is currently unavailable due to a violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.”
Footage of the disturbing incident spread to Reddit, where users blasted the streamer for her actions.
