Trucker’s horn blast cheers up a bus full of kids

A video posted this week shows a group of excited schoolkids on a bus asking a truck driver for a big blast from his air horn.

Caught on video: The children waved their arms, making the classic pumping motion as the bus rolled by a Peterbilt. The driver noticed and gave them a good, long horn blast, sending the whole bus into cheers.

The trucker later shared, “All about the kids. Thanks for making my day.”
Moments like this show the good connection truck drivers have with folks on the road, especially kids.

This simple gesture from a trucker brought smiles to a whole bus full of students.
