A taxi dropped into a sinkhole that opened in a rain-soaked road in Esenyurt, Istanbul, and was pulled out with help from firefighters and bystanders.

Nobody was reported seriously hurt, and the clip of the rescue spread quickly across Turkish social media overnight. Istanbul's autumn downpours regularly expose the same weak point: drainage and road surfaces that fail under sudden rain.
