Actually, this is Canada. Robert in Calgary
I was helping a lady stuck in the ditch bit north of Calgary there. I had my truck but no chains or tow ropes as I had just picked it up. So I went to an autobody business right near there and asked the owner if I could borrow something. He said sure, but I better make sure I have a safe pull point or she can go after me for damages. I asked him if he was serious, he said yes. So apparently, you can try to help someone but if you damage something, you’re responsible. Well, that didn’t stop me, I went anyways, turned out she had a trailer hitch on her little SUV.
After having to use 4wheel low to get her out, I looked and made sure it was road worthy, and it was fine. She thanked me and asked me for a business card with my company. I said it’s fine, you won’t have need for our services unless you’re a major oil company. I said Jesus says to love your neighbors as yourself, so here I am loving my neighbors. I could tell she wasn’t too happy with my reasons for helping.
