According to the Masan Central Police Station in South Gyeongsang Province on the 17th, a report was received that a car had broken down and stopped inside the Salje Tunnel in Changwon City at around 1:09 pm on the 8th.
When the police arrived at the scene, the broken-down vehicle was stopped in one of the two lanes, about 800 meters from the exit of the tunnel. The caller and his parents were using hand signals on the shoulder of the road to warn of the danger.
The police stopped a patrol car behind the broken-down vehicle to stop the cars coming from behind, but the average speed of vehicles in the Salje Tunnel is high, and the cars in front of the broken-down vehicle were forced to cross the lane.
The dangerous situation continued, with the driver changing his direction, and there was a risk of a secondary accident occurring. The two police officers, along with the caller, began to push the car out of the tunnel. The three men tried their best to push the car out of the tunnel, but the car fell into the tunnel.
The slope of the floor made it difficult to move the car. When they had moved the car about 200 meters, a cleanup vehicle was parked nearby and two cleanup workers rushed over. They
Without a word, they started pushing the broken-down car together. After that, the car was safely transported out of the tunnel, and the police asked the environmental beautification workers their names to express their gratitude, but they stubbornly refused.
On the 16th, the police released a video on YouTube titled "They Appeared Like Superman," which showed them finally finding the group.
Kim Dong-woo (47), an environmental beautification worker, said in an interview with Channel A, "This is a section where cars are naturally fast, so we just did what we had to do. There were no accidents.
"I'm glad," he said. The police plan to present a letter of appreciation to the environmental beautification workers.
