Hugs, Purelife.
I remember hitting black ice while driving with my young daughter, late at night in Northern BC. We inevitably crashed into the side of the mountain. Amazed that we survived, all the semi's diriving late that night hit the brakes, wanting to stop and help....but putting themselves in danger as thay too would start losing control.
I grabbed my daughter, and climbed a little ways up the side of the mountain, because I was afraid someone was going to crash into us. We were freezing..... finally 2 guys stopped to help. I was travelling with very little money and didn't own a credit card. He called BCAA to come and tow my car to the nearest town, telling them I was his wife.
They trusted a cheque I gave them, while they paid for a room at the towns' hotel. In the morning, I took my daughter for breakfast, and they were there. I thanked them a thousand times more, and when we left, they had paid for our breakfast....and my car was in the parking lot, ready to roll.
