A mind-boggling incident occurred in Istanbul during the late hours of the night. An unidentified woman lay face down in the middle of the road in a busy district of the city, completely disrupting the flow of traffic. Drivers attempting to proceed in their vehicles were both shocked and uneasy when they suddenly noticed the woman lying in front of them.
The driver of a luxury car was forced to stop upon seeing the woman lying in the middle of the road. The driver honked the horn and flashed the headlights for a while, urging the woman to move to the side of the road. However, despite all these warnings, the woman did not move from where she was. It was observed that the woman, who was lying face down and looking at her phone screen, was not injured; on the contrary, she was busy with her mobile phone and even appeared to be recording the events.
Some residents in the neighborhood watched the incident from their windows and balconies. Conversations among a few people included remarks such as, "The woman was not involved in any accident." One witness claimed that the woman had been on top of a vehicle shortly before and had suddenly fallen onto the road.
After some time had passed, one of the drivers, feeling helpless, got out of their vehicle and approached the woman. In this extraordinary incident, which caused traffic to be disrupted for a long time, the reason for the woman's behavior and the cause of her actions remain unclear.
