Businesswoman's electric car gets stuck in a drain in Goiânia and is removed with the help of twelve workers

Businesswoman Leonara Cristina went through an unusual situation after her electric car got stuck in a manhole in the center of Goiânia, and twelve people came together to help. According to Leonara, the incident happened when she was reversing the car to enter the road. Workers at a construction site opposite helped to untangle the vehicle.

A video shared by the businesswoman on social media shows the work to remove the car: one of the men places a beam and climbs on it to provide counterweight, while he leans on another to avoid falling. At the same time, other men push the car to lift the wheel that was stuck in the culvert (see the video above).

According to Leonara, the case happened this Thursday (1st), on Avenida T-63, in Parque Anhanguera. She parked in front of a store to shop and, when she went to leave, she didn't realize she was heading towards the manhole hole, which was very big. Even though he was leaving slowly, the car got stuck.

"I was parked in front of a construction site and I went to get out. When I reversed and tried to enter (the road) head on, my car ended up on top of the culvert", he said.
