Driver grateful after teens help push stalled car to safety
Seven student-athletes guided Robin Gay’s stalled car off a busy highway and refused payment, saying they wanted to help and keep her safe.
On Friday evening in Everett, Massachusetts, seven high school students pushed Robin Gay's car to safety after it broke down in the middle of a busy highway.
Returning from a volunteer shift at a dance studio, Gay said her car died in traffic, leaving her in a "panic state" as vehicles rushed by.
Senior Raul Guimaraes spotted the vehicle, prompting the group to direct traffic and push the car while refusing payment from Gay, instead offering a hug.
"Our first instinct was just to help out," senior Kevin Ordonez said, while Gerardo Cubias added it was "amazing to help her" after celebrating the effort.
Senior captain Jayden Alsaindor documented the moment "to show acts of kindness in the world," hoping the positive message spreads beyond the highway rescue.
