A group of strangers spontaneously came together to help the victim of a car accident on a busy boulevard in Florida.

Bystanders in Daytona Beach rendered immediate aid to a fellow motorist in need after a collision at the intersection of International Speedway Boulevard and Fentress Boulevard on Tuesday around 12:30 p.m.

Video provided by the Daytona Beach Police Department shows the gray SUV struck in its rear-left quarter while driving through the high-traffic intersection, spinning out and turning it over onto its side.

A group of strangers in Florida came together after a traffic accident Tuesday to turn upright an SUV that had flipped on its side in the center of a busy intersection.

The white SUV that struck the vehicle immediately came to a stop, as well as other nearby motorists.

A passing driver exited his car to help slip the gray SUV back onto its side. He was quickly joined by others as the group began rocking the SUV back and forth to gather momentum to put it back on its wheels.
