A firefighter in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, has been busy helping drivers across the area stuck in the winter weather.
For the past five years, Danny Schofield has been using his big truck to assist other motorists who get stuck on the side of the road and are desperate for assistance, News 9 reported Monday.
“Two-hundred and ninety-three thousand miles and it just keeps going. I love that truck,” he said of his prized vehicle. Video footage shows him hauling a black Mustang back onto a roadway.
However, Schofield does not expect anything in return except to see others pay it forward.
“I don’t want anybody to pay me, I just want people to help other people. So that’s my stipulation, if I pull you out, you have to help somebody else later in life. They don’t have to pull anybody out, they just have to help them however they need,” he explained.
In a post on Monday, social media user Kim La Rue praised his efforts, writing, “Way to go Danny Schofield the world needs more people like you!”:
Way to go Danny Schofield the world needs more people like you!
