A routine morning commute turned miraculous in Tongcheng City, Anhui Province, when a woman narrowly escaped death after being trapped under a turning truck while riding her electric scooter. Police swiftly halted the vehicle and coordinated a rescue operation captured in gripping video footage now circulating online.
The incident occurred at a busy intersection during peak hours, with witnesses describing the truck's sudden turn that knocked the rider to the ground. Within moments, multiple officers converged on the scene, stabilizing the vehicle and carefully extracting the woman from beneath the chassis.
"This ranks among the most fortunate outcomes I've seen in 15 years of traffic patrol," said a responding officer who requested anonymity. Medical examinations revealed only minor abrasions despite the vehicle's weight, with doctors attributing the survival to precise rescue techniques and the scooter's positioning.
The viral video has sparked renewed discussions about road safety measures for China's 350 million electric scooter users. Local authorities confirm they're reviewing intersection designs while reminding drivers to maintain safe turning speeds.
