Nope. But I have helped to pull a few out of deep snow and save them a tow truck fee.

Our cow farm has two highways and a railroad track going right on through.
We get some random chit out at the farm.
Last week while sorting pairs in the corral a woman walks down and needs help with a flat.
I didn't know who she was but of course helped out.

Yes, Several times. Always someone I was reasonably sure wouldn't cut my throat.

Yes, more than a few times. I'd pretty much pick and choose anymore though.

Out here where there are few people and fewer services we help out that way and others often.

Yes, I've stopped and helped an elderly women change her tire once. Then one day I was at the fire station when a young female pulled up to the station with a flat. It was around 95 degrees outside and humidity 80%. She "axed" if I could change her tire? I walked back in the station and got a couple of young guys to help her. She did not have a jack, SO I went and got mine out of the truck. The 2 young firefighters opened her trunk to find another tire completely shredded. She said she had another blow out a few days before. So the guys put the idiot tire on. The whole time she was sitting in her car with the AC on yakking on her phone. When they got through and let the car down. she just drove away. Didn't say Thank you, FU. Nothing! Acted like she had pulled into a self service filling station. The guys were soaked in sweat from head to toe. true stories from workin da hood.

I remember being a young kid and good folks stopping to help Mom out with a flat.
Kinda sticks with a guy I guess.
