A heroic truck driver quoted a Bible verse during an interview after he selflessly saved the victims of a horrific traffic accident.
Heroic truck driver
On November 16, Rodney Jones Sr. was driving his truck when he witnessed a tragic interstate accident on a connecting ramp between I-75 and I-275. Instead of just waiting for the first responders, the selfless driver did all he could do to help the victims. He jumped into action and started directing the traffic and ensuring the safety of everyone on the scene.
“I went to the first truck, and the driver was kind of in and out of it. I asked if he was alright, and he said, ‘Yes,’” he said in an interview. “When I got to [the second] truck, it was smashed. The driver was in the truck yelling, ‘Help! Help! Help!’”

Bible verse
He tried to rescue the trapped man on the wrecked truck but to no avail. After rescuers arrived and helped the man, Rodney went on to move traffic in the right direction. He used his truck to block the traffic and protect the people in and around the accident.
When asked how he was able to bravely help those victims, he quoted Matthew 7:12.
“I didn’t even think about the danger or anything around me. Somebody needed help,” Rodney said. “The Bible says do unto others as he would have others do unto you.”
Rodney has been a truck driver for more than three decades and he said he was blessed to never have been in an accident.
“I’ve been a truck driver for over 30 years, and I’ve been blessed to never have been in an accident like that,” he said. “But I’m pretty sure if I were involved in an accident, I would appreciate someone to stop and try to assist and help me as well.”
