Traffic police helped the driver of the truck, who was unable to start it due to frost.

While patrolling the R-255 “Siberia” highway at the 1111th kilometer, traffic police officers of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Nizhneingashsky district – police lieutenants Egor Martynov and Nikita Davidovich – noticed a Freightliner truck on the side of the road.

It turned out that the 37-year-old driver was heading from Tomsk to the Irkutsk region. Having stopped to rest in the Ilan-Nizhneingashsky district, he was unable to start the car due to a problem with the fuel system – it needed to be warmed up. Traffic police quickly came to the rescue and successfully started the engine of the heavy truck.

After thanking the traffic police officers, the driver continued on his way.
