This rural carrier has stopped twice to aid motorists

Rural Carrier Kerry Honrath was recently delivering mail in Pulaski, WI, when she saw a vehicle roll across the four-lane state highway she was traveling.

Honrath safely pulled over and parked her vehicle on the shoulder. She checked for oncoming traffic and ran to check on the other vehicle’s driver.

The Postal Service employee found that the driver was able to exit the vehicle on his own, so she stayed and provided comfort until paramedics arrived.

According to Pulaski Postmaster Laura Weier, this is the second time Honrath has assisted a driver in an emergency.

The other incident occurred a week prior on the same highway as Honrath was driving home. She stopped to check on a man who had briefly lost consciousness behind the wheel but recovered in time to pull his vehicle over.

Honrath stayed with him until paramedics arrived.

Both motorists expressed their appreciation for Honrath’s help and have recovered.
