On Sunday, a bus in Taevaskoja village experienced a traffic accident where it sank into a ditch caused by soft ground conditions, necessitating local towing assistance to retrieve it. This incident sparked considerable interest on the village's Facebook page, leading to debate among residents about the possible causes of the bus ending up in the ditch and who was to blame for the situation.

Residents voiced differing opinions regarding blame. One local, Pipi, pointed out that the road conditions were so bad that it wasn't the bus drivers' fault but rather a result of inadequate road maintenance. Others suggested that the ditches, which are typical in the region, are particularly dangerous in winter, complicating recovery efforts once a vehicle has gone off-road. Several comments reflected frustration over how winter driving conditions can lead to such incidents, and many were relieved that no one was injured in the occurrence.

The village elder, Ahti Bleive, weighed in on the discussions, noting that while it is easy to assign blame, understanding the broader context of road maintenance and winter weather challenges is essential. This incident highlights ongoing conversations in rural communities about road safety and the need for improved infrastructure during harsh weather conditions, reminding both residents and local authorities of the complexities involved in ensuring safe travel in rural areas during winter months.
