[Financial News] At 8:04 p.m. on the 30th, the coast guard received a report that a vehicle had fallen into the sea from the breakwater at Gongsu Port in Haeundae District, Busan.
When officers arrived at the scene, they confirmed that a passenger car had fallen into the sea. At the time, only the bumper was visible.
The driver, a woman in her 40s identified as A, escaped through the window on her own. She was the only person in the vehicle, so there were no casualties.
The coast guard connected the vehicle to a crane and completed the recovery operation to bring it ashore a little more than two hours after the accident.
The coast guard believes A had not been drinking and is investigating the exact cause of the accident based on her statement that she "mistook the sea for land and backed up while pressing the accelerator, causing the vehicle to fall."
