Highway Hero Honored for Life-Saving Action – Watch

We need some good news from every place we can find it. This is a story about a hero that bravely took his own life in his hands to save the life of a stranger. It’s a story about the good in people, a story about the potential for the heroic that is in all of us. 

We all know that we should be aware of other drivers and other vehicles when we are on the road. What would you do if you noticed someone who had lost consciousness while speeding down the highway?

Adolfo Molina had this exact experience not long ago and he did not hesitate to move quickly into life saving action. 

Molina was driving down the highway when he saw a woman in a blue car who lost consciousness as her car slid down the shoulder of the highway. He very quickly pulled his vehicle over to attempt to rescue the woman. 

The problem was, he had to cross over four lanes of congested traffic on the highway just to get to the woman while her car was still moving. 

Molina would not be stopped by the obstacles, he ran across the highway, crossing right in front of a black pick-up truck. He ran at full speed to attempt to open the woman’s door and stop her car. 

“I realized that the woman was unconscious and dizzy, colliding with the wall, with the window,” Molina told NBC, “it was something like God protected me in that moment.” 

The fact that he was able to do all this without getting hurt is a miracle in itself, but even more, with the assistance of another driver, they were able to get the car stopped. 

Molina told NBC that he hopes to meet the woman he helped save one day. The man was honored by his mayor and the Dominican Consulate in Boston for his heroic actions.
