Would you stop if you saw a car crash?

Would you?

Reason I ask is that this morning I crashed my car - spun out of control and into some road works and a grass verge.

Obviously I'm fine (can't say that about the car though)

6 cars drove past me before 2 cars stopped to see if I way ok. Both the cars that stopped went out of their way to do so and both were female drivers.

So - would you drive on past after you'd seen a car spin off the road or stop to check the driver is ok?

[SBP]

of course (glad you are OK)

[Case]

I would.

Did you see on the news about the cyclist who died by the roadside after being knocked off? I think it was in Manchester.

Apparently cars just continued to drive past whilst he lay they. There were even reports that someone ran over his legs?!

Unbelievable.

Glad you're ok Danielle,

Of course I'd stop - I would not dream of driving past

[Dotwhack]

I was always under the impression that everyone would stop - how very wrong I was.

As I'm always the first to complain about poor service, I would like to commend the AA for their speedy service on this occasion - operator said someone would be with me within 50 mins - 5 mins later an AA man appeared to recover the car - don't get much better service than that!

[Jeewhizz]

I would stop - and have done in the past Sorry to hear about your crash - were you going to fast?!

Not your luck with cars is it?

[Pixels Ink]

Yeah, it is awful that people will just drive by and not stop

Glad to hear you are okay.

[SBP]

3 cheers for the AA

BMW assist are also very fast for lone females (as wifey has called them out a few times)

That was the first thing my boyf assumed too - I actually wasn't though - I'd just set off from roadabout and hit some oil/fuel on the road. Stunt-style spinning followed by crashing into a load of roadworks....I've already complained to the council about the surface of the road.

Buckled wheel and damaged my beautiful orange paintwork

Thats all 4 cars off the road - better get the push-bike out!

[OnlyFair]

Yes, I'd stop and I have done in the past - the car infront of me hit the bike infront of them and they came flying off. Not a pleasant thing to see.

Glad to hear you're ok. Sorry about the car!
