    Ya, good job helping out! We don't get much help here in TX. I was in an accident in a very busy Fort Worth suburb on Dec. 7th 2011. A Ford Excursion pulled out in front of me while I was going about 40mph. It totaled my car and I sat there in a daze. A minimum of 12 cars had to have seen it and atleast 50 cars drove past and not a single person stopped to see if I was ok. My car was even blocking the intersection. Even the guy that pulled out in front of me pulled out of the intersection and walked his kids to school before coming back to the scene. I didn't think much of at the time, but now it kinda bothers me that nobody stopped.

    BTW, my car was an 07 Chevy Malibu. I had wanted a Tacoma for many years and couldn't afford to get the one that I wanted. On Dec. 21, I drove home in a 2012 DCSB TRD Offroad. Very happy with it!

    Im glad I live in Alberta. People always stop to help. Sometimes people wanna help too much and it creates a problem. If i witness an accident I will stay and make sure everyone is okay. Your suppose to wait for the cops once I made sure everyone was okay I left my number with the one guy so the cops could phone.

    Cop phoned and was pissed that I left the scene. I told him I had an appt that I couldn't miss. I left all my info I made sure everyone was okay and that the police had been called and I told him I left him my number for him to call if he needed a witness statement. He then threatened to charge me with leaving the scene of an accident. I was irritated at this point I told him to get fucked and pointed out how many people watched it happen and just left. When i went in to give a statement his superior came in and thanked me for all the help. Made the other cop frown.

    Update on cobalt girl. We are hanging out tonight! She wants to go 4x4ing haha awesome

    I love how this thread turned from the OP trying to save someone to him hanging out with a girl that he saved.
    I have to agree with the OP that I am glad that I live in Alberta. I do find that there is some good people out there that will stop if someone needs assistance. It's just too bad that not everyone will stop. I'm from BC and I found no matter what little, to no assistance that someone needed someone always stopped(Same with Sask). But really I think that it comes down to the person if they are able to change their day to help someone else in need. I don't care if I am busy, running late, I would always help. It's just sad that not everyone is like that.

    How's the "hanging out" OP? lol

    Sure glad we don't have them snow problems here, but it sure as hell's been raining a lot for the last couple of days.

    Ha well turns out she knows some good friends of mine so we went and set up some our wakeboard ropes behind our trucks threw them in 4x4 wet to his farm and pulled everyone on their boards fun day great way to relax. I never mentioned what I did but my buddy knew and told her she was taken back. Right now she is sitting On my couch and I'm making some food so see how things go. I busted out some veers too

    Too much to list, but enough to get me in trouble. Repeatedly.
    Tell me this is a euphemism. Or at least that you've now made it a euphemism.
