They have been hailed as heroes
A pair of highway workers have been hailed as "heroes" after helping to resuscitate a man who crashed his car following a heart attack. Jim Cotter and Paul Ashmore , who work for Hardstaff Barriers in Nottingham are finalists in the Highways Heroes Awards 2022, which recognise the heroic actions of individuals working in their industry.
While stuck in traffic, they noticed that a car had collided with the central reservation barrier. Early on the scene, Jim and Ash immediately got out of their van to help and put the amber lights on the vehicle to alert approaching traffic. When the paramedic arrived Jim and Ash assisted in the efforts to resuscitate the man. Miraculously, after some time, the man's pulse slowly started to come back. He was then taken to a nearby hospital for urgent medical care.
