Netanya: woman, 68, loses control of her car and crashes into a wall on Tom Lantos Boulevard

On Tuesday, 10 November 2026, a single-vehicle accident took place on Tom Lantos Boulevard (Sderot Tom Lantos) in Netanya. According to NetanyaNet, a 68-year-old woman lost control of the car she was driving, and the vehicle crashed into a wall. The driver was moderately injured.

The call came in during the afternoon. Magen David Adom (MDA) teams who reached the scene gave her initial treatment on the spot and then took her to the Laniado Medical Center in Netanya. According to the rescuers, she had injuries to her back and chest.

Asi Yitzhaki and Golan Tairi, medics with MDA–Hatzalah Sharon, said they were dispatched by MDA’s on-call responders’ centre after a report of a woman hurt in a crash that involved no other vehicles. They said they arrived quickly and found her fully conscious, with injuries to her back and chest. Together with other MDA medics and paramedics, they gave her first aid that included bandaging and immobilisation.

The woman was taken to hospital for further treatment, and her condition was described as moderate. The report did not say why the driver lost control of the car, and no other injuries were mentioned.

Single-vehicle crashes – where a car leaves its lane and hits a barrier, a pole or a wall without colliding with another road user – can have many causes, from a sudden medical problem to distraction or a mechanical fault. In this case no official explanation has been given yet, and it is too early to draw conclusions.
