He quickly assessed the situation and realized that he needed to act fast to save the lives of his fellow students. He ran to the driver's seat, grabbed the wheel, and steered the bus safely to the side of the road.

With the bus safely stopped, the boy then alerted the other students on board to the situation and guided them off the bus to safety. He remained calm and composed throughout the ordeal, putting the safety of his classmates before his own.

Emergency services arrived on the scene shortly afterwards and rushed the driver to the hospital.

Lessons to be Learned
