Re: Should I have stopped?
if it is feasable to stop i will stop and see if people need help. even a cellphone call for help can turn someone's disaster back into a happy day. the only time i dont stop is heavy traffic on a interstate. in some places like freeways in big cities like chicago it is illegal to stop for such things. in those cases i call the local 911 and report the breakdown via cellphone if the person is not already recieving assistance.
its just ingrained in me to help folks in distress.
it is better to be the one person that helped than the thousand that drove by while someone died.
