After checking the driver's condition, the people gathered their strength together to lift the car back upright.

A person who had witnessed the accident reported to Yonhap News, "I heard a loud noise while working and I looked out the window only to find a car laying sideways.  It was very moving to see all the people uniting together to assist another in need."

Meanwhile, the driver of the vehicle was taken to a nearby hospital after dialing emergency services (119) and reported to have suffered minor injuries.
