At around 2:00 p.m. on July 12, while transporting goods from Phu Phuong intersection to Thong Thu commune (Que Phong), Mr. Pham Van Tho (born in 1990), residing in Tien Phong commune, Que Phong district, encountered a very large rock blocking National Highway 48, passing through Bu Cao Ma pass, Hiep Phong village, Thong Thu commune.

As soon as he discovered it, instead of trying to dodge the car to get to work on time, Mr. Tho stopped and used a chain to pull the rock out of the road to avoid any unfortunate accidents.

To get the rock out of the road, Mr. Tho had to drag it nearly 50 meters. Mr. Tho said that because the rock was large and heavy, coupled with the fact that the truck was carrying goods and the road was steep, it took him nearly an hour to pull the rock to the side of the road.

Immediately after Tho posted the above images on his personal Facebook page, he received hundreds of comments and dozens of shares. Everyone admired and praised his beautiful actions.

It is known that this road is steep, and in the rainy season, rocks often roll down the road, causing traffic jams and affecting people's travel.
