Overview
- The driver appeared at the Seoul Western District Court for a warrant hearing to decide if she remains in custody beyond the 48-hour emergency arrest window.
- Investigators say she acknowledged driving after taking drugs and told police she had undergone a sedation procedure at a Gangnam hospital and also took psychiatric medication.
- Police found empty propofol bottles, multiple syringes — some reportedly containing drugs — and medical tubing in the Porsche.
- The crash occurred around 8:44 p.m. on Feb. 25 when the car broke through a Banpo Bridge guardrail, struck a Mercedes on the highway below, and came to rest near the riverside.
- Both drivers sustained non-life-threatening injuries, four vehicles were damaged, and the National Forensic Service is conducting examinations after no rapid on-scene test was performed.
