A spectacular accident occurred in Majadahonda last Tuesday, September 15, 2026, when a car fell 5 meters into a construction site on Barbero de Sevilla street.

The driver, a middle-aged man, emerged unharmed from the incident as his vehicle fell into the construction pit, narrowly avoiding the cement and steel pillars being installed.
The event prompted the intervention of the Community of Madrid Firefighters, Suma 112 Emergency Medical Services, and the Majadahonda Local Police. Despite the shock, the driver declined to be taken to Puerta de Hierro Hospital and opted to go home.
Firefighters began the process of recovering the car with a crane, allowing construction workers to resume their work, which had been interrupted for several hours.
The incident brought to mind similar accidents in Majadahonda, such as a sinkhole near the Train Station in 2021 or a car falling in the parking lot of the Gran Plaza shopping center.
Additionally, the text mentions resident dissatisfaction with traffic jams at the Roza Martín roundabout, criticizing the lack of smooth vehicular flow.
