Christine Sandford, 40, from Windsor Gardens in the city's north-east was killed.
Simon Bittner saw what happened and said passing drivers tried to help her but it was too late.
"The car looked like he had hit her straight on and the way her car spun I couldn't see the other side of where most of her damage was," he said.
"There was a nurse a couple cars back, she came out and volunteered,"
The driver, from Ottoway, Port Adelaide, was charged with causing death by dangerous driving with police investigating how fast he was going.
He was granted bail to appear in Adelaide Magistrates Court on May 31.

SA Police Assistant Commissioner Ian Parrott said it wasn't unusual for that to happen.
"Whilst in particular for the family it would be difficult to understand, it is not an unusual circumstance that this person would be granted bail," he said.
Three people have been killed on South Australian roads in just two days.
A total of 35 people have died in less than three months.
Parrott called the death toll "absolutely insane".
