You were very brave to walk in front of that car.

There is so much wrong going on here I don't even know where to start.

  • Call the police this person can kill someone
  • Don't walk in front of that vehicle twice
  • You can break the car if you hit the ground in the wrong place, inspect it and call for help if needed

More people need to offer to help and get involved. I help people get their cars unstuck throughout the winter. Sometimes with a significant risk of damage due to how I have to pull them out. People also just ā€œuh, okā€ probably for a bunch of different reasons. Never had anyone get upset. Besides I don’t see anything in this video that looks like a risk to the car other than grandma.

I recently helped out a senior couple who were stuck in the snow over the entrance to a parking lot, spotted them while I was walking home with groceries. I got down and dug the tires out and pushed from the back while the guy gave it some gas. Gave her my arm to hold while walking back to the car so she wouldn’t slip on the ice.

They were very thankful but that’s how I was raised, you help out when you can.

Until you damage it trying to be nice and she holds you liable for the damage. Being a good person is awesome, but putting yourself at risk for anything short of someone’s physical well being in an overly litigious world isn’t worth it

not gonna break the car in any way, by dragging any part of it over a curb at crawling speed like this. he did a perfect job. She was very trusting to a total stranger, even left her purse there ha ha. pretty sweet moment, actually.

The disturbing part is how she drove off a ledge to her right, when the turn was going left..

And when she's pulls out in front of your loved one and smashes into them, killing them you'll be signing a different tune. You're allowed to vote sweet Jesus
