As a woman was driving her Chevy Cobalt through a lonely highway in Ontario, Canada around 1 in the morning, it broke down.
Three teens were on their way to grab something to eat after a late-night swim when they spotted the smoking car and its distressed driver. So, although they were still in their swimsuits, they pulled over and attempted to fix what was wrong with the woman’s car.
The woman told the teens that she couldn’t afford to have her car towed. So the boys – Aeron McQuillin, 18, Bailey Campbell, 17, and Billy Tarbett, 15 – then decided to push the woman’s car all the way to her home, which was just over 4 miles away.
So the woman steered as the boys pushed for more than 3 hours. While they were pushing the car, Dan Morrison of Niagara Falls, could see what was going on. He slowed down behind them to give them light, keeping his flashers on for other motorists to see. He was amazed by the boys’ kindness to do that for the woman.
“I’d never met these kids in my life. Dad mode went into effect and I just wanted to make sure these kids were safe.”, Dan says.
So would they do it again? You bet they would.
“We were always raised to help, no matter what the situation was… We were helping her but also she was helping us, doing a workout.”, says Billy, the youngest of the boys who pushed the car
Dan posted about the boys rescuing the woman on social media, and it quickly went viral.
