“The actions of the student who helped stop the bus made all the difference today, and I could not be prouder of his efforts,” the Warren Consolidated Schools superintendent said.

A Michigan seventh grader is being praised for helping to avert a possible crisis after his school bus driver passed out at the wheel and the boy brought the bus to a stop.
When the bus driver “became lightheaded and lost consciousness” while driving on Masonic Boulevard near Bunert Road, the student “saw the driver in distress, stepped to the front of the bus and helped bring it to a stop without incident,” Livernois said.
