In downtown Seoul, a group of quick-thinking citizens united to lift an overturned car following a collision, successfully rescuing the occupants inside. Among those inside the vehicle were a mother and her two-year-old child, who fortunately escaped serious injury thanks to the rapid response of these good Samaritans.

On June 13, a sudden burst of white smoke emerged from the wheels of a moving sedan. The car then sped forward uncontrollably and crashed into a vehicle waiting at a traffic signal. The impact caused the struck car to flip over and rest on its side, blanketing the road in a cloud of smoke.

Several bystanders who witnessed the accident from the sidewalk immediately rushed towards the overturned vehicle. Drivers of other cars also quickly pulled over and ran to assist.

One witness shared, "There was a loud crash, and the car flipped over. Within seconds, passersby, including a few pedestrians, began rushing over to help."

Within moments, around ten citizens had gathered. They combined their strength to push the overturned car back onto its wheels. Carefully, they opened the car doors to rescue the occupants inside.

Inside the vehicle were a mother and her two-year-old son. Remarkably, neither sustained serious injuries.

The driver of the vehicle responsible for the collision was a man in his seventies who reportedly hit the accelerator instead of the brake by mistake.

This accident affected six people in total, including the mother and child and those in the car ahead. Thanks to the prompt and selfless actions of the citizens, all involved avoided serious injury.
