Today, the AWESOME is in Mobile, Alabama. Usually, when approaching a highway construction zone, you see signs reminding drivers to watch out for construction workers. This time, it was the worker who was paying attention. Last week, a vehicle sped into an active work zone, striking several traffic barrels before plunging into Mobile Bay. As the car began to sink, foreman Kain Pintarelli of Mobile Asphalt Company didn’t hesitate. He immediately jumped into the water, reached the submerged vehicle, and pulled the driver to safety as water rushed inside. Because of Pintarelli’s swift action, the driver made it safely to shore, and THAT’S AWESOME.
