A woman who lay face down in the middle of the road in Istanbul at night, blocking traffic, drew attention by ignoring the prolonged honking of drivers and dealing with her mobile phone on the ground. While a citizen nearby claimed that the woman had fallen onto the road from a vehicle, the reason for this curious incident that snarled traffic has not yet been clarified.
An unbelievable incident occurred in Istanbul during the night hours. A woman, whose identity has not yet been determined, blocked the flow of traffic by lying face down in the middle of the street. Drivers trying to pass and local residents were greatly astonished by the scene they witnessed.
THE DRIVER'S HORN PROTEST AND CURIOUS BEHAVIOR
At the moment of the incident, the driver of a luxury car passing through the street had to stop his vehicle upon seeing the woman lying in the middle of the road. The driver flashed his headlights and honked his horn for a long time, waiting for the woman to move out of the way, but she remained completely unbothered. In the footage, it was noted that the woman, while lying face down on the ground, was not so much injured as preoccupied with her mobile phone, watching the screen, and even recording what was happening.
CLAIM FROM A RESIDENT: "SHE FELL OFF THE TOP OF A VEHICLE"
Residents who anxiously watched the incident from their windows and balconies witnessed the situation moment by moment. In conversations among nearby citizens, it was stated that the event was not a traffic accident, and a very striking claim was made. A witness to the incident alleged that the woman had been on top of a vehicle shortly before and then fell onto the road.
Realizing that honking would not work, the driver was eventually forced to get out of his vehicle and approach the woman. Why the woman carried out this peculiar act and how the incident concluded remain a mystery.
