Trucker Leaps Into Moving Vehicle In Pennsylania

There was a daring rescue in LeHigh County, Pennsylvania... on the turnpike, of all places. State police say a trucker lept from his own rig to stop a tanker truck after its driver suddenly died behind the wheel. The trucker noticed the semi rolling slowly on the northbound side of the northeast extension, when he lept into action.  He was able to bring the big-rig to a halt in LeHigh County without crashing it.
