In Arad, a serious incident occurred when a tram started on its own, without a driver, and traveled almost a kilometer, passing through intersections and over pedestrian crossings. The carriage stopped only after violently hitting two cars and another tram that was stationary, injuring seven people, including a family with a small child. The first hypothesis suggests that the driver accidentally touched the start lever while trying to adjust the tram. Witnesses described the moment as terrifying, and the driver and passengers were shocked by the strong impact. Authorities are investigating the incident, and the transport company has launched an internal inquiry, while the police have opened a criminal case for bodily harm due to negligence.
