Dahe Daily reporter Zhang Yalin

At more than 1:00 a.m. on September 23, a taxi driver in Xinxiang City was suspected of having a sudden heart attack during the journey and fainted in the car. Passing citizens immediately called the emergency when they noticed the abnormality, but unfortunately, the taxi driver eventually died.

The first to notice the anomaly was a couple who opened a hotel in the middle of Jiefang Avenue, and when they drove home after work, they walked to a location not far from the east side of the intersection of Jiefang Avenue and Xiangyang Road and found a taxi parked in the middle of the road. Ms. Liu, who was sitting in the co-pilot, found the driver slumped in the cab and quickly called out to her husband, Mr. Luo, to stop.

Mr. Luo told reporters that after opening the car door, he found the driver lying on the steering wheel, unconscious, and there was a smell of medicine in the car. Seeing that an abnormal situation occurred in the middle of the road, the two passers-by who passed by since then also rushed to help, no matter how they shouted, the driver did not respond. Mr. Luo immediately called the police on 120 and 110.

Mr. Luo said that there was a quick-acting heart-saving pill found in the car, and it was estimated that the driver had a heart attack and took the drug after finding him uncomfortable, but it was still not relieved. The 120 ambulance arrived and pulled the taxi driver to the hospital for rescue. On the morning of September 23, the reporter learned from the emergency department of Xinxiang Central Hospital that the taxi driver was eventually killed after rescue.

The reporter randomly interviewed a taxi driver in Xinxiang City, and the brother said that night shift drivers generally have to work from 5 p.m. to 3 a.m. the next day, and it is difficult to make money by driving a taxi now. The brother said, "Pulling people for the New Year, pulling people's hearts tired." "Overtime work is commonplace, there is no regular diet, sleep is not guaranteed, it may be such pressure that leads to the occurrence of sudden death events."
