What have you done to break the stereotype?

I have jumped friends, and last year I pulled over to let a girl whose friends had driven off without her use my phone. Not that I had much choice as she almost leapt in front of my car to flag me down.

If I thought someone needed me to pull over and help them I probably would, but I have yet to encounter a situation like that. With cell phones, most people are just waiting for AAA to show up.

Couple weeks ago a guy in a beater of a truck, was pulling out of the gas station. He had left his wallet on the roof. When he pulled into traffic it went sliding off. I went into the street (waiting for a pause of course) and picked it up. I looked at the drivers liscence, put the address in my gps and delivered his wallet. The house was in a mobile home park. When I pulled up to the address, he turned out to be a young kid and he was crying to his father (not literaly crying) about losing his wallet and money. I got out of my car, said something like "the roof of your truck has a hole in it's pocket", handed him his wallet and got back in my car. Both of their faces were worth the good deed. They tried to give me $20, but one day I will be in the same position and hope someone returns the favor.

On a old car like our 986s I have no problem jumping other peoples cars, but if it were from my BMW... no way. The electronics are so sensitive in these later model cars. And some of the older 2004 ish cars have no overload or circuit protection.

Had a friend who had their BMW jumped incorrectly by a co worker, worst thing you can do on these cars. Fried so many things in the car. blown leds in the dash, head light control units blown, cruise control no longer works, ECM fried, $2500 just in parts and the car is still not the same.

If I do it when I'm in a later model car, Ill call AAA for them and let them do it.
