Back in the late 60's I was driving to Billings, MT, on a Sunday. Car stopped on Interstate with hood up; another driver had already stopped. I needed a break so I pulled over and stopped.Big momma in front seat, little guy behind the wheel, 3 young girls in the back. None of them got out of the car at ant time.
Engine overheated from ruptured bypass hose. Other driver knew them, but had no tools. I had tools, so pulled off hose to let it cool. Wrapped hose with duct tape and refilled cooling system from the 5 gallon can of water that I always carried when driving in MT in those days.
The taped hose bulged but held, so I told them to stop in the first town and have a new hose put on. They took off without even a "Thank You". The driver thst knew them just shook his head, but didn't seem too surprised.
Kinda dampened my willingness to help stranded motorists. Now I'm old, I just drive on by and think that someone younger will come along.
