A dangerous situation unfolded in Florida recently when an elderly man fell in the middle of traffic and cars continued driving on, swerving around him but not stopping.

The man was using a walker to cross the road when he lost his balance and tumbled over. The first several cars swerved to avoid him, but failed to stop. That’s when good Samaritan Barry Shaw rolled on to the scene, and his dashcam was rolling on the entire incident. You can see him hop out and attempt to help the man while encouraging others to help.

Shaw said to a local ABC news in Miami,”My first reaction was, ‘Why isn’t anyone stopping to help him? Because there’s an old man lying in the road.'”

“The gentleman there was just in the point of falling down on the ground,” said Shaw. “He just went over, and I was like, ‘Oh, my goodness.'”

You know, “He could have easily gotten run over, very easily,” he said. “I ask for help from God every day, so when there’s the opportunity to help someone else, you have to take it.”
