That was a very nice thing they did for her.
I’m surprised the car owner didn’t make it her business to get their names, so she could thank them , maybe send a gift card or something.

My next remark won’t win me any fans.
If one of the boys was my son or grandson, I would not want him pushing a strangers’ car for five miles, at night and at times uphill.
People do get hernias and throw their back out, even kids.
They could have been #Me-Too’ed as well.
She probably had her phone, so she could have called the local police for help, just to get her off the public road.
Still, it’s good to know there are still people this nice.

Screwy story for sure. A man was there with a car and followed them.
A photo is at the site.

Problem is if you promulgate that scared and selfish attitude, well, hellish society is exactly what we get.

If more people did what is decent and kind, we’d have fewer problems including urban crime. Instead, hiding away let’s it happen.

I don’t blame anyone for their concern for their safety, but ultimately maybe they made someone else safer.

Agreed.
When 9/11 happened, our kid wanted to drop out of school & go to NYC to help. We told him no.
We were concerned about long term health effects of breathing the toxic ash into his lungs.
Unfortunately our fears have been well founded, WRT the first responders.
