The incident occurred on Sunday afternoon after the driver braked sharply to avoid an accident, say representatives of the Public Transport Company from Timisoara.

“Just after 4:30 p.m., a train was left at North Station, under the section, after Whatman braked sharply to avoid hitting a streetwalker who had fallen onto the tracks. Fortunately, the accident was avoided, but the tram got stuck, remaining on the de-energized section,” Patriciu Rouset, deputy director of STPT, told Opinia Tișoara.

In order to unblock the road, several passengers intervened and started pushing the tram.
