When you get behind the wheel of a vehicle, you don't usually think about all the bad things that can happen at any point on the road. Even if you drive safely, other drivers may put you at risk for an accident, or you may even start feeling unwell.
In the case of the latter, it helps to have caring and calm individuals in the vehicle with you, who would know exactly what to do.
These people aren't always adults, too — they can be kids of all ages! This 12-year-old managed to slip into the driver's seat of his mom's car when she suffered a hypoglycemic attack, and saved both their lives and even the lives of others on the road.
Fourth grader Dae'reon Durham didn't hesitate to jump into action, too, when he saw his bus driver having a medical episode behind the wheel.
Despite having the A/C on inside the school bus, the driver was suffering from an episode of vertigo, and was very close to passing out before the 9-year-old got to her.
The brave boy helped her get to the next stop, where she put the bus in parking mode.
Thanks to Dae'reon, not only was the driver saved from a potentially terrible accident, but the other kids as well!
