Man claims GPS led him into Toronto transit tunnel where car got stuck: TTC
TORONTO — A man who allegedly drove his SUV into a streetcar tunnel on Thursday, bringing traffic in downtown Toronto to a halt for several hours, reportedly told transit officials he was following his GPS instructions when his vehicle got stuck.
Toronto Transit Commissio spokesman Brad Ross had no information on where the man was travelling when he drove into the tunnel at one of the city’s main downtown transit hubs in the middle of the night.
A streetcar came across the SUV jammed in the tunnel shortly before 5:00 a.m. Thursday morning, he said.
He said stuck cars are not unheard of, but said this one stood out as unusual due to the nature of the tunnel and the distance the vehicle travelled.
