Now, on the other hand, if the problem that someone has is just a flat,
I'm less likely to help them since I figure that if you own a car you
should know how to change a flat...

When my wife had a flat tire a few years back, on I-25 between Colo. Springs
and Pueblo, four guys on motorcycles stopped to help. She was a bit freaked
out and kept her 40S&W handy as they walked up.

The head of the bunch took out his ID, and showed it through the window.

It was four guys from 4th Infantry Division at Fort Carson.
