In a bad one... most kind of 'help out'... or try to, those who are in trouble.

One time however, a woman wouldn't let my ex make a call from her phone. Our car had konked out in a drift, right in front of her house. The roads had become impassable.

Some dude in a Suburban finally came along and drove us the short distance to our house.

Looking back... I could understand her hesitation to let us use her phone... but it WAS a bad situation for us. Go figure.

I tried to drive in it once and decided very quickly it was an unwise decision. (My kids had never seen snow, so I took them to the neighborhood 7-11.)

Thanks for your story. The woman should have at least made the call for you!
