An Alabama truck driver's amazing save is capturing him some national attention.

A video making the rounds shows the truck almost being blown over due to 60-mile-an-hour winds on a Kansas highway. Remarkably, the driver is able to right the truck and make it onto the side of the road safely.

KWCH in Kansas City reported the driver was Guy Tapscott of Decatur.

The incident, which occurred two weeks ago, was captured on a video taken by passenger in the car behind the truck.

Tapscott was driving for Kansas City-based Butler Transport. Experts who have watched the video said his skill helped keep the big rig from crashing.

"That driver deserves a medal," driving instructor Jeff Steinberg told KVVU in Las Vegas. "That was a great driving maneuver there."
