Thank you Escambia Fire Rescue! Glad it didn’t get down on Davis. What a mess that would have been. Glad everyone is ok. We have the BEST First Responders! God bless each and every one of them.
Years of being a truck driver, knowing what to do in emergency, etc. Do you think an 18 year old would know what to do?
that’s a hard job right there must be one heck of a driver he got the rig in a safe place no one was hurt
I hope his boss gives him a raise. good drivers like this is hard to find. job well done ( sir )
