The running subway would have been beneath him by the time he got up to where the cart hit him, so the noise of the train would not be as loud and wouldn't prevent him from hearing the oncoming cart. He had to hear the crashing sound of the hot dog cart. I love this film but this scene and the way it played out was so stupid, unfortunately.

It's an unrealistic plot device that happens in movies all the time.
Someone is standing in the middle of the street and they see an out of control truck heading right for them 5 blocks away.
They have plenty of time to run out of the path of the danger and do they?
Nope. They just stand there and stare and wait to get hit instead of running to safety.
Humans are not the only species on earth.
We just act like it.
