He walked in front of the tram before throwing it to the ground when it stopped.
The near-fatal incident occurred in the northern Turkish state of Samsun.
The woman told Turkish media: “I put headphones on to distract myself, but I almost died because of it.”
The incident took place in September last year, but has since resurfaced on social media.
A security camera showed her looking in the opposite direction as the tram approached, before realizing she was only inches away.
She tried to get out of the way, but the tram jumped her and she fell to the ground.
Several concerned citizens came to her aid, but she was not seriously injured.
The train conductor said in a statement: “The accident occurred at around 08:00 am, as I approached Paruthan station in the direction of Line 1, I applied the handbrake, as a young woman passed without looking to the right or left.”
She added: “I honked, but when the girl didn’t hear me, I pulled the emergency brake, which is a hard brake.”
