330 am drizzling into snow, 30-35 degrees, saw a car on the shoulder with a snapped axle and dimming hazards middle of nowhere illinois, said "that sucks" to myself, about 1 mile on, saw a small figure walking.
Took me a few seconds, but figured someone desperate enough to walk in that crap needed some help.
Hit shoulder, her car broke, her phone was dead, she asked to borrow my phone or charger (her iphone port didnt work with my android stuff) and a ride to just the next exit.
Let her call on my phone, found a truckstop 3 exits down that wasnt open but would be at 6. Waited till she got a hold of someone to tell them where she was, left her there with a blanket. She sat on the bunk, i dont have a passenger seat.
Wasnt keen on leaving her outside like that BUT also not in my cab any longer than i could get her out of it. I'm a married man and i know what temptation looks like.silverspur, Dino soar, Sirscrapntruckalot and 3 others Thank this. -
