Good for them!

Many years ago, a group of teens had a breakdown in the hills after a movie.

A cop found them, and used his cruiser to push them farther off to the side, cited them, and left.

They had thought they were saved. But no. This was pre-cellphone. No town or phone nearby. The cop did not offer to contact anyone for them.

Those kids were wholesome Christians I knew. So much for tax dollars.

These three did far better than that tax-paid non-servant.

I only had good experiences with AAA.

A while ago I had a car that had problems, AAA always showed up fairly quickly after I called them.

Why didn’t they use the running vehicle to push the other car?

Have no idea other than the guy didn’t want to chance scratching
a bumper. My thought was a piece of rope and tow it along slowly.
