While a monster traffic jam blocked the Escalette tunnel (Hérault), on Sunday, on the A75 motorway, two children gave motorists a smile.

They distributed water to all drivers and their passengers, just to stay hydrated, to cope with the stifling heat that fell on the region that day, said Pierrick Jean, an ambulance driver, stranded in the traffic jam, at

Midi Libre.

"It's so rare these days"

“We were all in our cars, stopped, the doors open, the heat was becoming more and more important in the passenger compartments, he confides to the newspaper.

Suddenly, we saw a young girl and a little boy, going from car to car to offer drinks!

“According to this Aveyronnais, these two were returning, as a family, from their holidays spent in the South, and “they had several packs of water and they actually benefited everyone.

It's so rare these days to see people taking care of others!

This gesture particularly affected this paramedic.

“Tomorrow, these are young people who could embark on personal services,” he confides.

And he hopes to be able to find, thanks to the magic of the Internet, this generous little family.
