After doing my groceries, I decided to take the scenic route home. While driving on a dike (*giggle*), I was suddenly overtaken by an ambulance and two fire trucks. Since I didn't have anything better to do at the moment, I decided to follow them and see what was up. a few hundred meters own the road, there were a lot of police vehicles, another fire truck and a couple of ambulances.
Apparently, one of the tractors that was trimming the grass on the side of the dike, had tipped over and was laying upside-down in the moat next to the dike. About 2 minutes after I had arrived at the scene, a trauma helicopter (sort of a flying ambulance) landed in the backyard of the house next to the dike. A little over 40 minutes later, the driver of the tractor had been extracted from the wreckage and was on his way to the nearest hospital.
