VIDEO: Florida driver rescues two toddlers from busy road after spotting them in traffic

4

From Fox News: A quick-thinking Florida driver stopped and ran into a street to save two toddlers who had wandered into the middle of a busy roadway Sunday.

John Brittingham said he was driving southbound on A1A in Brevard County when he spotted two young girls standing in the middle of the busy roadway. He immediately stopped his vehicle and ran into the road to grab the children.

Video shows Brittingham sprinting toward the children as he holds up one hand to signal oncoming traffic to stop.

“I was terrified thinking of what could have happened to them. The rest of my life would have been ruined,” Brittingham told WESH-TV.


The two little girls were both estimated to be around 2 years old or younger, and could not tell Brittingham where they came from after he scooped them both up off the busy highway.

Brittingham found a house with the back gate open. When no one came to the front door, he grabbed the door knob and it opened, so he yelled out, asking if they were missing their children.

He said there was an “older couple and a young girl” sitting on the couch, and they hadn’t even realized the toddlers were missing.
