Random encounter help: Trapped construction worker

Guides

A routine drive through Little Seoul turns into a life-or-death rescue mission in GTA 5. Witness the chaos as a truck is crushed by falling debris at a construction site, trapping its driver inside. Armed with nothing but a nearby bulldozer and quick thinking, can you save the worker before the inevitable explosion?


The bulldozer

While driving along the construction site in Los Santos (the Little Seoul district, to the North-West of Franklin’s house) you may watch a cutscene of an unfortunate accident. Reach the construction site quickly and, after you listen to the cry of the trapped worker, get into the bulldozer (HVY Dozer) parked nearby.

You need to unlock access to the driver’s door

Use the bulldozer to unblock the driver’s door of the damaged truck. After you do that, retreat with the bulldozer to a safe distance and wait for the explosion. You now need only to receive the thanks from the saved worker.

Rewards for the completion of the event:

  • 2 to the driving skill
