The impact was not very strong, but It was definitely unexpected. After the initial shock, which passed in seconds, I got out of the car to see if the passengers in the other one were OK. The lady who was driving it also got off. I saw that no one was seriously injured and offered to move the cars to the bus stop. It was already green and I did the maneuver in question, I got out of the car and, to my great surprise, the other car was not behind me – the driver had decided to run away. This happened shortly after 5 pm. I called 112 and got a very adequate response, the operator was mainly interested in my health, contacted the traffic police and told me to wait for a patrol car. I moved the car from the stop (after all, it is for the buses) and managed to find a parking space directly opposite – before the stop in the opposite direction. And I waited … “, said Georgi Iliev.
About an hour later, a patrol arrived with police, took documents and asked him several times about his health. “The adrenaline had already relaxed me and I began to feel more and more pain in the left part of the waist, with which I had taken the blow due to the specific posture I had taken while waiting at the traffic light for a left turn. They called an ambulance, which came after 15-20 minutes, and at the suggestion of the doctor, who examined me thoroughly (even measured my blood and saturation), took me to Pirogov for examinations by specialists. At about 7 pm he was in “Pirogov” and 3 and a half hours later, after six X-rays, an ultrasound, an alcohol test (showed 0.0 per mille) and two examinations by specialists (traumatologist and surgeon), I went with fees to SDVR “, describes the details of the incident the mayor of” Slatina “.
