How would anyone know you had broken down?

 

[DISCOV8]

So would I, even if it was to only offer as mikeadams1985 said a lift

 

[Farrar]

How would anyone know you had broken down?

Would anyone stop right on a roundabout? Maybe a clue!

you did

 

[Farrar]

you did

I had no choice.you haven't broken down yourself then.it's a genuine question as if you break down and have no means of contacting anyone would anyone help.

If you were driving a series, fender, D1 or D2 then yes I'd stop and offer help.
Any other vehicle then no - unless you're a good looking female with yer tits out.

that made me proper lol

I genuinely do stop and help whenever there is clearly a problem - flat tyre, steam/smoke/fire, or just bad location, ie a roundabout. But whenever I have stopped, they have always said they have been there a while.

One woman was clearly 8 months pregnant, on the inside of a blind roundabout, in a dead, beaten old Transit. Said she had been there about 30 mins, people nearly killing each other to avoid her, right outside a supermarket too! I pulled up, ran into the road, pushed her round the corner to face downhill and told her to pull over somewhere safer. Then ended up towing her to a garage.

Im just nice like that lol, and Ive met some good friends from it too. Its surprising how helping someone in such a small way can have such a big impact on people. And you get a nice warm glow inside too

In my experience you should NEVER underestimate some peoples stupidity, personally I would have left the bonnet up to advertise the fact that you had broken down, and not simply pulled over to answer your phone, scratch your bollocks or whatever. But yes I probably would stop and ask if I could help, although again it would probably only be a lift

I was driving along the A12 last year and came upon a seris half on the verge and half in the carrigeway, I stopped behind and put my amber flashers on and wandered over to see if I could help.
The fella had a puncture and no jack!
10 mins later and i'd changed his wheel and he was on his way.
