A shocking accident occurred on Saturday, November 6, in the Talatpaşa neighborhood of Kağıthane around 4:00 PM. According to the information obtained, Savaş D. (48) attempted to reverse after getting into his car.
HE WAS TRAPPED UNDER HIS CAR WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT As the vehicle reversed, Savaş D. suddenly fell from the driver's section. While trying to understand what happened and getting back on his feet, the vehicle came over him. The driverless car hit Savaş D., causing him to become trapped between the car and the wall. While Savaş D. was injured, damage occurred to the vehicle with license plate 34 AU 7416 belonging to Ubeydullah S. (26), which was in motion, as well as to the parked vehicle with license plate 34 KJR 244 and the electrical panel on the sidewalk.
HIS HIP WAS BROKEN, HIS LEGS WERE CRUSHED Following the incident, health and police teams were dispatched to the scene upon notification. The health teams provided first aid to the injured Savaş D. at the scene. It was learned that Savaş D. had a broken hip and crushed legs, and he was taken to Okmeydanı Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşçıoğlu Hospital by ambulance for treatment. It was reported that the driver's life was not in danger. Meanwhile, police teams conducted an investigation into the accident and prepared a report. It was determined that the drivers involved in the accident were not under the influence of alcohol.
Savaş D. "WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE TRAPPED UNDER YOUR OWN CAR" Speaking about the incident, shopkeeper Sedat Polat (36) said, "A man fell from the car. The car went back. Then the car went forward. It took the man back under the car; in other words, the man was trapped under his own car. It's a bit absurd, the door was probably open. His foot might have gotten caught on the pedal; he could have fallen from there. Because he hit the car, and since the car was fast, it might have shifted gears because it was automatic. If we put this in a Turkish movie, it would really be cinema. The man's legs were crushed. He is currently in a cast, his hip is broken; he is lying at home now. There is damage to both cars; one car is totaled. He will have to fix his own car. Two cars are totaled. If you put it in a Turkish movie, it would be something that has never happened before. It is a live example for the first time in Turkey. What does it mean for a person to be trapped under their own car?"
