The Nasuhdede locality, where the incident took place, was taken under security measures by gendarmerie teams after the accident. Upon the tractor with the license plate 07 P 0879, driven by Mehmet Eşmeli, rolling into the ditch, the possibility of the driver being trapped inside the vehicle was considered.

Tractor accidents stand out as accidents that are frequently encountered, especially in rural areas during periods of intense agricultural activity, and generally result in severe consequences. The high risk of the vehicles rolling over poses a great danger for the drivers. Experts have repeatedly emphasized that the use of seat belts and tractor roll bars are of vital importance in such accidents. This painful event experienced by Mehmet Eşmeli has also caused the issues of transportation and occupational safety in rural areas to come to the agenda once again. It is of great importance that agricultural workers and farmers act more consciously against such risks.

Gendarmerie teams announced that the investigation regarding the accident is ongoing and whether there is any negligence or technical failure is being investigated. In the examinations carried out, it is aimed to thoroughly examine the technical condition of the tractor and determine the factors that caused the accident. It was reported that the statements of eyewitnesses regarding the incident were also consulted and these statements will be evaluated during the investigation process. Mehmet Eşmeli's body will be handed over to his family to be buried after the completion of the autopsy procedures. Citizens living in the region demand that measures regarding road safety and tractor use be increased to prevent such accidents from happening again.
