Good job! It's all the bad guys that make us not want to help! I've been first on the seen @ bad wrecks! I'm not good with blood but I do try & help!
Back before cell phones it wuz alot harder! I remember leaving my buddy there @ wreck & hauling *** to the next town to call for help! The guy ended up dying & I had to live with that!

It was sketchy for sure, but there was no doubt they needed help. I though tthe gas tank was going to blow up, but it never did thankfully. I did inhale a bit of smoke and I was shaking, but nothing serious.

an hour later we saw another car on the side of the road with a smoking radiator. We all looked at each other and I said "if its not on fire, were not stopping"

Ill usually stop, except at night, when its only dudes, or if its a sketchy area. myself and another guy had to seperate instances recently. We tried to stop and help women with flat tires, they screamed for us to get away and locked themselves in their cars.
