Dillon Reeves, a seventh-grader whose parents haven’t given him a cellphone, grabbed the steering wheel and hit the brake to avoid a crash.
That afternoon, his son, Dillon, a seventh-grader in Warren, Mich., had grabbed the steering wheel of his school bus, bringing it to a stop after the driver lost consciousness. The bus was veering into oncoming traffic, but Dillon’s swift actions kept about 60 students onboard safe from an accident. Of those students, Dillon was one of a rare few who wasn’t looking at a cellular device, which helped him notice the driver’s emergency, his family said in the CBS report that aired Friday.
Robert Livernois, superintendent of Warren Consolidated Schools, said last month that after Dillon stopped the bus, two “good Samaritans” came to help the bus driver and get the students out of the vehicle. Dillon told his parents after the incident that he had watched the bus driver do her job every school day.Advertisement
