Bus Driver Makes Special Stop to Rescue Lost Sheep

Sometimes heroes drive buses. That's what happened when bus driver Martine Patey turned her ordinary commute into an animal rescue mission.

An Unexpected Roadblock

Martine was heading to her very first day of work when she spotted something unusual - a sheep wandering in the middle of the road. The woolly wanderer wasn't just taking a casual stroll. It was blocking traffic and causing problems for drivers.

Community Rescue Effort

Martine didn't hesitate to help. She pulled her bus over to the side of the road. Working with a few other kind motorists who had also stopped, they managed to catch the confused animal.

But what do you do with a sheep once you've caught it? Martine had an unusual solution.

A Sheep's Bus Ride Home

The impromptu rescue team loaded the sheep onto Martine's bus. The woolly passenger likely enjoyed the most unique transportation of its life as Martine drove it to a nearby farm. There, the sheep waited until its rightful owner arrived to take it home.

Right on Schedule

The most amazing part of this story might be Martine's dedication to her job. Despite the unexpected animal rescue mission on her first day, she managed to arrive at her scheduled East route pickup just one minute late.

Talk about grace under pressure! Martine handled both her animal rescue duties and her professional responsibilities with remarkable skill. Her quick thinking saved the day for both frustrated drivers and one lost sheep.

This heartwarming story reminds us that small acts of kindness can make a big difference - even when they involve giving farm animals public transportation.
