i'm more intrigued by the image of the rescue in the article where someone appears to have been riding a quadbike on a frozen lake (?!) and fallen in.

https://www.firetruckmall.com/AvailableTruck/10923/2018-Neot... this would seem to be the source, is it a test? but why would you use a real quadbike in freezing water for a test? Looks terrifying.

Oddly relevant. A man and his daughter drove a quad over ice and went through it in the Netherlands last weekend, and the girl passed away earlier today. :(
