HOME DELIVERY TAKES A DISTURBING TURN JJ FOODSERVICE
HOME DELIVERY HEROES ON WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A NORMAL DAY OF DELIVERING GROCERIES TO CUSTOMERS’ HOMES, TWO JJ FOODSERVICE DRIVERS ENDED UP HELPING PREVENT A POTENTIALLY FATAL ROAD ACCIDENT.
L
ast week saw what should have been a routine day for two home delivery drivers for JJ Foodservice turn into a dramatic episode as they ended up helping prevent a potentially fatal road accident after a driver’s brakes failed on a busy motorway in Leicester. On their way to delivering groceries to homes in the area, Florin Wolf (pictured left) and Daniel Samoluk (pictured right) were shocked to see the front wheel of the motorist in front of them shearing off, tearing the brake cables and leaving the driver unable to stop. Controlling the vehicle with just three wheels, the driver managed to deliberately crash the car into bushes at the side of the road.
Daniel and Florin quickly stopped and leapt out of their van to help, blocking traffic to keep the driver safe and even helping him get his wheel back! The daughter of the motorist then put an appeal out on Facebook to track down the drivers and thank them for their bravery. She eventually found them and extended her gratitude. Commenting on the incident, JJ Foodservice Chief Executive Officer Mustafa Kiamil said: “We are so proud of our drivers.” He added: “Florin and Daniel are a great demonstration of the first-class service we always strive for at JJ Foodservice.”
