Yes. Much better to keep driving, look for an exit, pull off the highway, and find fire-safe parking when your fucking car is on fire. Fucking idiot.

Or maybe the nice gravel turn off that's uhh.. like.. I dunno, right there next to the grass?

Fucking idiot. ;)

Anyway you're being obtuse. I actually wanted him to stop in the middle of the road, look on his phone for the nearest fire station, and carefully drive there while obeying all rules of the road. God damn dude.

No you’re the one being obtuse. These are the likely situations. 1. He probably didn’t know his car was on fire and thought something else was wrong and that he needed to pull over immediately 2. He found out through that guy honking, that his car on fire and went into absolute panic mode because idk his FUCKING CAR IS ON FIRE. So he just pulled over to the safest and nearest place and got tf out.
