Tourists can get a little enthusiastic when on trips, especially to Santorini, famous for its picturesque blue Mediterranean Sea and narrow alleys. An incident where a tiny rental Nissan Micra got stuck in these slim lanes shows that this enthusiasm can often cloud one's judgement while driving a car in a foreign land.

According to reports, a tourist was driving a Nissan Micra to explore the location when unfortunately the individual got the car stuck between two walls of a tapering alley. The picture of the car taken after the incident gained traction on social media almost immediately. Many users found it shocking as they shared that anyone with a bit of logic could have gauged the size of the lane compared to the car before driving into it.
