In the Kozlu district of Zonguldak, a concrete mixer that went out of control after the driver lost steering control slid backward and crashed onto a single-story house.

The driver, who was trapped in the massive vehicle that crashed into the house, was extricated from the vehicle thanks to the rapid response of the dispatched teams and bystanders. It was reported that the driver, who survived the accident with minor scratches, was taken to the hospital after initial treatment.

Following the incident, police and fire brigade teams that arrived at the scene took security measures and began work to remove the overturned vehicle from its location. While extensive security measures were being taken in the area, authorities launched a detailed investigation and inquiry into the accident.
