He thought he was just getting a ticket… but what he got instead was kindness he’ll never forget.
In St. Tammany Parish, Deputy Dustin Byers pulled over a driver for speeding. But when he reached the car, he realized this wasn’t just someone in a rush — the man was on his way to a funeral, emotional and struggling to tie his tie.
Instead of writing the citation, Deputy Byers helped. He fixed the tie. He listened. He offered a quiet moment of compassion right there on the side of the road.
Because sometimes, what people need most isn’t a warning or a lecture… it’s a little humanity. ❤️
