VIDEO: Neighborhood comes together to help broken-down truck driver

A TikTok user documented her heartwarming experience after her truck broke down in a residential area.

The video was shared last week by TikTok user Melissa Bencivengo (ladym_tankerdriver).

In the video, Bencivengo explains how locals stepped up to make sure that she was okay while she was waiting on a service truck.

Neighbors offered to let Bencivengo use their restrooms and even brought her snacks, drinks, and a plate of food as she waited hours for the service truck.

“It’s really awesome that it’s not just truck drivers that help each other out, but there’s a small little community over here that saw a truck driver in distress and took it upon themselves to make sure I was okay,” Bencivengo said.

The feel-good video clip has been viewed on TikTok more than 180,000 times in less than a week. Check it out below!
