The dog stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed into the lake. Two dogs drowned
4hw.com.cn: on the morning of the 21st local time, a New Zealand woman was sitting in a car when her dog accidentally stepped on the accelerator and the car rushed into the lake. Two high school students waiting for a bus at a nearby bus stop jumped into deep water for rescue, but one of them was also in danger. Fortunately, the drowning woman and high school students were finally rescued by another high school student.
One of the rescuers, 15-year-old high school student Jack Hodgson, recalled that in the morning of 20, he was waiting for the bus at the station. At about 8:15, he saw a red car carrying a lady and two dogs sinking into the lake not far away. The lady's friend was screaming for help. Another high school student, Joseph Ripley, saw the scene.
Hodgson immediately rushed into the lake, but soon found that the water was too deep. 'I tried to swim, but my school uniform was too heavy to step on the bottom.'
Ripley also rushed to help. When he found Hodgson in trouble, he immediately dragged him ashore, then swam to the car and rescued the woman ashore. Ripley said, 'I just did the right thing.' I believe others will help and jump into the lake when they see this scene. "
New Zealand fire and emergency department officials said that on the morning of the 21st, the woman met her friends by the lake. They often walk their dogs there. At that time, the driver's door of the car was open, and a friend's dog suddenly jumped into the car and stepped on the accelerator, causing the car to accelerate and rush into the lake. And because the dog is at the woman's feet, she can't step on the brake.
It is reported that two dogs drowned.
