A Heroic Driver
Larry works with Transport Drivers. Inc. One morning in 2009,Larry was traveling along 165 north after delivering to one of his customers. Suddenly, he saw a car with its bright lights on. As he got closer, he found another vehicle upside down on the road. One more look and he noticed flames shooting out from under the disabled vehicle. Larry pulled over, set the brake and got hold of the fire extinguisher(灭火器).Two good bursts from the extinguisher and the fire was put out.
The man (who had his bright lights on) came over and told Larry (he had made an emergency call). They then heard a woman’s voice coming from the wrecked(毁坏的)vehicle. Approaching the vehicle, they saw that a woman was trying to get out of the broken window. They told her to stay still until the emergency personnel arrived, but she thought the car was going to explode . Larry told her( that he had already put out the fire )and (she should not move in case she injured her neck.)
Once fire and emergency people arrived, Larry and the other man backed off and let them go to work. Then, Larry asked the police if he was needed or free to go. They let him and the other man go.
One thing is for certain —Larry went above and beyond the call of duty by getting so close to the burning vehicle! His efforts most likely saved the woman’s life.
Larry在运输公司做一名送货司机。2009年的一天早上，Larry在将货物交给一个客户后，正沿着165号公路往北行驶。突然，他看到一辆亮着车灯的汽车。当他靠近一些时，他发现另一辆车翻倒在路边。再看一眼时，他注意到有火焰从车底下冒出来。Larry把车停在路边并拿起灭火器。他用灭火器喷了两下，火被扑灭了。
那位打开车灯的司机向Larry走了过来，告诉Larry他已经拨打了急救电话。然后他们听到从被翻到车里传来了一个女人的声音。走近一看，一个女人正努力从破碎的窗户中爬出来。他们告诉她在救援人员到达之前不要动，但是那个女人认为车将要爆炸了。Larry告诉她火已扑灭，她不应该动，以免万一伤到脖子。
当急救人员来了后，Larry和那个人退到后面好让他们过去。Larry问警察是否需要他帮忙或者让他们离开。他们让他和另外那个人离开了。
有一件事是确信无疑的—Larry靠近燃烧的车辆，这已经是超越了他的责任义务范围。他的努力挽救了那个女司机的生命！
