Very often a trucker’s contribution to society goes unnoticed. Nevertheless, they keep on trucking and keep America stocked and moving without looking for recognition.
Even in his dying moment, this particular driver still contributed to helping those around him.
While driving in rush hour traffic on Interstate-5 in Del Mar, California, a truck driver suffered a fatal heart attack in his rig.
By the time paramedics arrived to the scene, their attempts to revive him were unsuccessful. The driver was already dead.
In his unfortunate passing, however, was a heroic act that saved others on the roadway from injury or worse.
During the heart attack, the driver was able to pull his rig over to a safe location, keeping others out of harms reach. A true professional until the end, always thinking about others around him.
Rest in peace driver, you are appreciated.
