In the Tver region, a bedridden patient was taken out in a tractor bucket

The ambulance just couldn't get through the snowdrifts and the swept road. The doctor did not give up and found a tractor from a local farmer. Thanks to this, the patient was able to save his life.
Moscow, by today's standards, is just around the corner: Bezhetsky district of the Tver region, only 280 kilometers from the MKAD. And even then, most of the road will pass along a toll highway that connects St. Petersburg and the capital of Russia. This is an important moment to understand that everything did not happen in an abandoned village.

The ambulance went to the call to the patient. But, at the entrance to the village, I got stuck in the snow. The road to the village was tolerable: "The road workers cleaned the "MTZuhami" (tractor of the Minsk Tractor Plant - ed.), smoothed it," explained the ambulance driver. But it was no longer possible to drive into the village itself: "it cut the rut, I started to go out — I sat down."

Meanwhile, a patient needed urgent help in one of the houses. The doctors had to get to his house on their own, and at that time the driver ran for help. I found a local farmer, whom I asked to help transport a person. Of course, you can't put a patient in the cab, but the tractor bucket was quite suitable for transportation. A man was put in it, the doctors climbed in after him to control the process, and delivered the cars to the ambulance.
