Yekaterinburg tram incident was a slip, not an accident
A tram is pictured on a city street, illustrating a scene where a pedestrian slip caused a false alarm.
An unusual traffic accident involving a tram occurred on Kuibyshev Street. An ambulance was seen at the scene, and witnesses reported an injured child — but in reality, it wasn«t that serious.
Witnesses thought that the tram hit a child with its mirror — and that the child fell hard. However, the traffic police for Sverdlovsk Oblast told E1.RU that in fact, there were no children or casualties.
After an investigation, it became known: the participant in the incident is a 20-year-old young man. He slipped, but fortunately, did not sustain any injuries. He declined to file a traffic accident report.
Unfortunately, not all accidents end so lightly. Just in case, read some useful instructions from E1.RU: in them, we explain how to help an accident victim and not cause more harm in the process. A doctor gave advice on how to resuscitate a person, and explained when it«s necessary. Another important piece is about how to extract a passenger or driver from a wrecked car.
We also compiled a useful test: check if you can correctly provide assistance to people who have been injured in a traffic accident.
