Yes

Nah. I usually just drive past and laugh.

Why risk getting stabbed or shot?

Only in parking lots

Not gonna stop while on the road just cause some faggot is stuck there

Someone faps to this, don't they.

I can't even fix my own car let alone other people's

This

I somehow ran across a video of some girl stuck in a mud pit with some muscle car. All she is doing is revving it out for a while, then she gets out and "sexily"tries to push it, then gets back inside and revs it out some more, next thing you know she takes off her shoe and there is a close up of her dirty ass foot massaging the gas pedal while the engine bounces off a limiter.

This was a couple years ago and it still screws up my head.

I think it even triggered a foot phobia that I now have.

I'll help if I'm walking past someone who's stuck or has a flat tire, but I wouldn't stop if I was driving. I'll go out and help my friends if they're stuck on the roadside somewhere though.

That's not suitable attire for those weather conditions.

Last week a girl was stuck in the middle of a busy road so I pulled up and asked if she wanted me to push her to the side of the road. When I was pushing her car 3 people yelled "that's so nice" to me so I asked her how long she had been stuck and she said 20 minutes. Fucking people man, I ran out of gas and it took 2 hours for my friend to come and not one person stopped. Should have tried to get that chicks number though she was a cutie and she said she called her sister not her bf

Only when walking. Pretty fun walking up and giving somebody stuck in the snow a shove.

>keep a toolbox and everything a driver could possibly need in my 94 sonoma and 05 corolla
>stopped and helped as much as i can because it was always weak shit like a dead battery and no gas
>got an MR-S with no room for tools

tfw now i just drive by and laugh at them

>foot phobia
How do you even live with yourself?

A while back I accidentally let my battery die while waiting for a train, and of the hundred or so people behind me, nobody stopped to help. I had to push my car off the road by myself while people were honking and shouting abuse at me.

I was really lucky though because the guy from the gas station up the road noticed I was sitting on the shoulder and came over with his own truck and gave me a jump start. :)

As an actual footfag, I will never understand pedal pumping (yes it has a name, there are multiple entire websites for this shit). They try to make hitting a gas pedal erotic but all they really accomplish is taking standard porn overacting and focusing it down to a single body part for way too long.
The cars don't even sound good.

I don't help people.
No one helped me.

I gave somebody a jump in a parking lot once

but I'm not going to pull over to the side of the expressway and help somebody

Usually not for cars but if its a motorcycle ill stop. Ive had people stop for me with bike troubles but never car, so I return the kindness.

Saw a girl's tire disintegrate while she was driving, I knew she was going to be fucked since we were pretty far from anything so I took the next exit and swung back around to find her on the side of the road. She had no idea that her tread had peeled off or where her spare tire was. Any other time I've stopped, the people said they already had help so I left.

i drove with a ratchet set in the trunk for a dew days and I couldn't handle the sound of that jingling around and sliding back and forth

I live in a safe as fuck city so I do all sorts of weird shit.

I helped some dude who got stuck in a roundabout push his car into a parking lot.

I also once gave an hour and a half lift to someone to get home who was pinging out their mind.

>helping humans

you and the way you think is the root cause of all of the problems in this world. Congratulations on swallowing the constant barrage of garbage from media/popular culture

...

>you and the way you think is the root cause of all of the problems in this world
no, the root of all the problems in the world is why he's afraid to stop you fucking retarded monkey.

Yes.

Its a good thing that i lift.

Pushing a car isn't that hard, especially when someone is steering. Nice of you to stop though. :)

the death of community which was and is pushed by your ((masters)) led to why hes afraid to stop not vice versa

no, it's niggers. are you stupid?

>hurr it's your fault niggers kill people
no.

one time some guy was frantically waving me down at the end of his driveway on a back road

I slowed way down and he started to look happy

then I floored it and he looked disgusted in my rear view mirror

Yes.

Turns out the shop got robbed that night.

It's also less necessary now that everyone has a cell phone and can summon help without leaving their car, not like the old days were you either waited for someone to stop or walked to the nearest payphone.

One time when I was in the garage working on my project car my mom told me to go help a girl stopped in her car in front of her house. She had a flat tire and I changed it for her. I was a dorky 16 year old and she was a college student so I had no game.

If i see a bike on the side of the road ill stop and see if they are good. I usually don't stop for cars

> imblying the places you break down have cell phone coverage
it's like you're some sort of city fag who thinks cell phone coverage is everywhere

yes, I regularly stop to give rides to gas stations, or up the road, or to just check on people.

I made a promise to a family that helped me 10 years ago when I ran out of fuel about 15 miles from the next pump ( i had just gone through 110 miles without a single filling station). The local catholic church actually turned me away saying they could not help, it was the first place I tried (and where my car coasted to a stop...in their parking lot), before walking through the town.

I tried to pay them and they refused.That Family gave me 10 gallons of fuel, and 10 bucks to finish filling it up and get food at the station. They asked me only that "You do the same for the next person you see in need".

Ive probably given 50 people rides since then, ive paid for people to eat, and ive stopped and chatted/stayed with people until someone came to help them/ tow them.

Ive never been harmed, held up, or really felt threatened. Its my version of pay-it-forward

like bicycle?

Too many immigrant criminals.
"community" is a white cultural phenomena.
Remove the white -> remove the community.

They can walk their ass to a cell tower. It's not worth the risk unless you live in a 90% white area.

I was on my way back from the track once and I had my 1/2" electric impact, bunch of sockets, some other tools and a nice 2-ton jack in the back. just so happened to see a middle-aged lady on the highway trying to change a flat on her Hyundai. I pulled over and asked her if she needed help and she was like "yes! I have no idea what the fuck I'm doing" so I get over to her car and she's got the scissor jack set up on the gravel and it's pushing itself into the ground rather than lift the car up. I had the wheel off of the car in about a minute, and then picked up the spare that was leaning on the bumper and asked her if she had ever checked the pressure in it. and she says "I dunno, do they do that when they change my oil?" I said "not likely, it's completely flat" and she starts losing her shit and swearing, wondering how she's gonna make it somewhere to fill it up and I just walked back to my truck and grapped my portable compressor/jumper pack, look back at her and I still remember the look on her face. she was absolutely dumbfounded. I filled her tire up, bolted it on and she tells me that I'm an angel, and right as I'm about to leave another car pulls up behind her. I figured it was someone else stopping to try to help, but then she goes "ah holy shit I totally forgot I called my boss!" so he had driven down to help her for absolutely nothing, but then she bummed a $20 off of him to give me because she didn't have any cash.

Aw. That's so sweet.

A greasy neckbeard in a misfiring beat up pickup once stopped to see if I needed any tools he had. I didn't, but that was pretty swell of him.

Put more tools back there until everything stops moving

>implying the majority of breakdowns don't occur in population centres and major transport corridors which have cell service

Yeah, live in Canada pushed many cars out of the snow and had many people help push me out of the snow.

>4 years ago see some cutie in a parking lot. Battery is dead, jump start her car get her number. Year later marry her. Celebrating our anniversary next month.

Fuck good for you man.

it's still like you're some city fag who thinks every country or part of the country has cell towers installed along the highways and byways

learn2geography, amerifag

Helped some guy go to a shop with his flat and buy a new tire. I know how car troubles are all too often and it blows. Guy gave me $50 even though I was trying to turn it down. $50 beats him spending $100 on a tow in addition to the other bullshit.

T.pajeet

It's actually a bit more specific than

>EWW FEET

It's more like

>Your stink ass feet don't belong on the table, dash board, in my face etc.

But the real difference is that as soon as the foot is behaving haram that I can see the stink even if there is none.

I live in a town of 2,000 people in the middle of nowhere oklahoma and there's a cell tower less than a mile from my house.

Shut up idiot.

I wish I had gotten their name, or could remember the name of the town to send them a thank you card, or something. Its been something I have regretted for years now.

actually thought of another incident. I grew up in Wisconsin and we had family that we would visit in Iowa on the holidays, and on Christmas Eve day I was on my way there in my Jeep with my sister. we were on a country highway and saw an old full-size van sitting on on a scissor jack with a wheel missing, and a trailer behind it, and nobody in sight. a few miles later we stop at a gas station. my sister goes in to buy coffee while I start pumping fuel, and this guy comes up to me and explains that the he was the owner of the van down the road, he had gotten a flat and went to change it and found that his spare was flat. he rolled it the entire distance to the gas station but the wind was picking up and it was really cold and he asked if there was any chance that I could give him a lift back to his van. so I told him sure and then I look toward the store and see my sister holding the door open for a lady that happened to be the guy's wife. so I throw his spare in the back, and the two of them get in the back seat. while we're driving he offers me some rolled up cash and I told him not to worry about it and that I was happy to help. I stopped in front of his van, helped him get the wheel on and tightened down and he shook my hand, his wife gave me a hug and we wished each other safe travels and were on our way. a little bit down the road and sees that the guy had left not one but two $100 bills on the back seat.

From previous experience? Which tools would you wish to have had in that moment? What tools should you always carry? What extra tools should you carry? I got a tool box on my truck that I want to have fully stocked with everything necessary.

>implying I weigh my car down with unnecessary garbage

I've got a cell phone to call a tow truck if it's anythign more than a tire change

Outside of odd specialty things I thought I might need, a basic socket set and some c-wrenches have done the most for me. Of course tire pump, flashlight, knife, pliers, screwdriver, paracord, etc. as well.

>tfw lost my first laptop to using the screen as a flashlight and it popped out of the engine bay when I got the engine started and it shattered
that was dumb

Besides pliers, screwdrivers, etc. a cheap torque wrench would be nice to have. I hate helping someone change a tire and then worrying about not tightening the nuts enough.

Yea, one time I saw a guy walking a bike down the side of a road at night so I pulled over to help. Just ran out of gas and he was only about 1/4 of a mile from a gas station so i let him go.

I have a few times... and unfortunately when it's a woman, I typically drive by, pulled over on two occasions to help a woman change a tire and they acted so out of sorts like i was going to kidnap them... (Also i'm a business casually dressed, clean shaven individual, pulling up in a Lincoln Zephyr, not looking like a gang member or biker) "my boyfriend is coming any time now, hes in the army and very strong" as shes stuttering and backing away from me...

So I got sick of being treated like a psychopath, and wish them the best as I drive by them..

THE WASHINGTON POST: A man stopped to help two teens pull an SUV from a ditch. Then, they allegedly killed him.

Authorities in South Carolina said two teenagers have been arrested on murder charges after one of them allegedly shot and killed a man who had just helped them pull an SUV from a roadside ditch.

Michael Odell Anthony Dupree-Tyler, 19, and Deon Antonio Frasier, 17, were denied bond on Tuesday in the shooting incident, which occurred Monday night in North Charleston.

Police said a witness asked the victim, later identified as Chadwick Garrett, to help the teens pull a 2016 Dodge Durango from a ditch along a narrow road.

North Charleston police spokesman Spencer Pryor said in a statement that officers arrived at the scene about 11 p.m. Monday and found the victim lying on the roadway.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

“During the investigation, it was learned that the victim was assisting two black males in pulling a Dodge Durango out of the ditch,” Pryor said in the statement, which was emailed to The Washington Post. “After the victim got the vehicle out of the ditch the two suspects then robbed and shot the victim.”

After the shooting, a woman from the apartment where the suspects live called police and said the two teens had taken her SUV without permission. She gave a description of the vehicle as well as of Dupree-Tyler and Frasier, according to documents cited by the Charleston Post and Courier.

“With all due respect to the family, they coming at me the wrong way because I haven’t murdered anyone,” Dupree-Tyler said, according to the newspaper.

I seem to only ever see people while I'm on the way to work and don't have time to stop. Although one time I slowed down next to someone than saw it was a nigger and just kept going cause fuck that shit.

I don't know where you live, but I've been all over Europe, in bumfuck nowhere hill country parts of Czech Republic and Poland and less respectable parts of European Russia. The only places where i didn't have cell coverage in the last decade were deliberate blackout zones Ruskies love maintaining around their "strategic objects" , which is half of the fucking industry and infrastructure.

There was a guy stuck in the wendy's parking lot one time I was there for a bite, and I offered to help. He declined, didn't even thank me for the offer. He passed up on a guy who happened to have a full set of tools and jumper cables in his car at the time.

I hope he couldn't get it started and had to call a tow truck. Was a POS early 2000's Mitsubishi Galant anyway, that car's probably been junked by now anyway.

usually not as they might be just gypsies, But in winter if someone gets stuck or needs a jumpstart I'll happily oblige cause I've needed a jumpstart occationally.

white people yes

>in a town

Yes. A Ford Focus got into deep snow and got stuck, and I had a shovel with me. He was already going to call a tow truck.

I was on the side of the road macgyvering my throttle linkage yesterday and nobody stopped

No because most of the time I'm doing 80-85 and when I see them I'd have to lock breaks just to slow down into the same area code as them. There was one guy who I regret not stopping for because it was a f100 from the 50s, but he got stuck right before an exit ramp and I wasn't going to block even more of that with my car

no.

wouldn't happen if you drove throttle by wire.

I've stopped a few times but would probably not stop for just anyone on a deserted highway.

>pulled over and put out an engine fire
>someone coasted to a stop behind where I was parked while fishing. drove her down the road to get gas
>stopped for an elderly woman stopped in the middle of the street with a flat tire. got her to pull into a parking lot, changed the tire and then followed her home since the spare tire was a little low
>stopped on a busy city street for a guy with his hood up and holding jumper cables. He said he had been standing there for 20 minutes and probably 100 cars had passed and no one else stopped

Several times, but only if it wasn´t a (sand)nigger.

Should've had exposed some ass maybe.

If I see people clearly stuck I stop. Pushed a couple people out of deep gravel, but I've never seen someone truly stranded

When i had a 4wd I towed people out of ditches n stuff.

Athiests will argue this

A CAA or AAA card

If I tried do be this nice here in Brazil I'd end up dead real fast.

Seriously he probably passed hundreds of people and no one bothered helping him or even giving him a lift in such horrible weather?

>Electronic systems are immune from faults

A electronic throttle isn´t more relieable than a steel cable to your throttle body.

That´s why I always carry additional 20L of fuel in my car, wich is enough for at least 400km in my car.
If someone runns out of gas and isn´t a nigger or arab, I´d fill him up for the normal fuel price.

>see car on side of the road with hazards on
>same car and color as mine.
>stop and ask if he needs help

Perfectly normal i guess.
But i helped a hitch hiker once.
Wont do that again.

A couple of times, I never stop and help but I usually make a call to the non emergency police number to make them aware in case they actually are in trouble.

A few years ago someone who stopped to help got murdered so I am not fucking chancing that.

Story about the hitch hiker?

I was driving to my buddies place and saw this lady on the side of the road in an RX-8 with a blown tire.

I'm in my NC miata, so I figure why not help out a fellow Mazda owner.

Change her tire, and while speaking with her, I found out she's the wife of a dealership owner I bought my Miata from.

Tell her that I bought it a few months ago. She asked for my name and phone number and I get a call later that day from the owner.

He told me he would let me have any Mazdaspeed accessory I wanted with install included. Told him that it wasn't neccessary, but insisted to reward me for helping his wife.

I got an AEM/Mazdaspeed intake. He personally watched over the install and had the master tech explain to me how to get to the filter if I needed to change it, how it would effect the cars performance.

They even rotated the tires and changed my oil just before they buttoned everything up.

Needless to say I was very grateful. The dealership owners name his Bob, btw. Nice guy. He likes miatas.

I can´t afford to give you 20L of it for free.

You are seeing part of the bad side of Veeky Forums anonymous posters who feel entitled that since you are helping, you must also give them a tank of free gasoline too. On /a/ these ungrateful people often attack translator teams that provide free translated manga and anime too.

Have a few stories about this stuff. I'll start with the oldest.

I just now realized that my dad is probably the reason why I always stop to help people on the road when I can. He always stops to help people no matter what.

He comes from an older time when there was more sense of community. Nowadays, it's all about personal responsibility type of justified selfishness.

>Crawl under car and start hitting starter with ratchet while my friend tries to start it
You forgot the punch line. You used Snap-On to hit the starter because it would have failed to work if you used something wimpy like Harbor Freight Pittsburgh.

May as well just call AAA at that point, since it's so hard to help people
