Sun Meiling, 19, rushed to the scene as soon as she was told a driver was trapped in a burning car at the scene of an accident last week.
"I first shouted to him to run, but he seemed very weak," said Sun, who is from neighboring Shandong province and moved to Xilijiaying village in Rongcheng county to work.
As the fire grew bigger and bigger, she was left with no choice but to drag the driver out of his seat.

The 64-year-old driver, who had fainted due to chronic illness when the car was caught fire, suffered slight burns and is at a hospital.
