Would you stop to help a damsel in distress (I don't know what the make equivalent is but for the sake of equality a dude in distress)???
On my way to work this morning I managed to puncture my passenger front tyre. I pulled over and dutifully went about changing it.
I .was parked up in the entrance of a near by stately home and many cars pulled up to the gate and went through without so much as a 'are you ok?'!
One man did stop.....just as I was packing everything away  |

Good man. Just enough interest to make him seem like a white knight, but not enough that he actually had to do anything. It's hard to get that balance right. 
Can I suggest next time that you unleash the puppies if you need help? They'd be queing down the road then. =-O |

I always stop and see if they need help. Changed people wheels for them and towed them to the garage quiet a few times. Not once has anyone ever asked if I need a hand though |

Yeah I'd stop. Once I broke down on a country road with no mobile reception. About 30 cars passed without stopping. 2.5 hours later a guy stopped and towed me to nearest town and garage so I always try and stop if I can and help out. Changed a few tyres for people in my time at the side of the road. Nice to be nice. |

On the day of the last FA Cup final I was hot footing it back from work to watch the mighty Chelsea. I was wearing 3-4 inch Stilletos and had work clothes on (oh and my usual acrylics on!) and low and behold I got a flat tyre!
I pulled into a petrol station, climbed out of the car and looked at myself and the situation. (I had also had my appendix taken out 3 weeks previously!) a very kind man changed my tyre for me. I would have had to phone the breakdown people otherwise.
I made it home for the second half!!! |

"Apparently it's all about equality these days. No bugger helped me when my button fell off  "
It would depend whether it was an essential button or one of those ones just for show.
OP - I'd offer to call the breakdown people. |

"No
I can't do car maintenance nor change a tyre, so I would be fuck all use
you could pump the jack.. 
how do I get in contact with him
he'll be the one with his handle ready... "
that is good to know, I always have a blanket, a spade, mars bar, poppers, lube and condoms in the boot.

I couldn't quite make it fit with the blanket, poppers, lube, condoms and post-coital snacks. I do think you are missing some vital kit though: where are the wet wipes? |

for goodness sake, I am not a sexual deviant... the spade, blanket and snack are for the winter, the rest for giving any emergency service person a tip...
I always tip... sometimes I even go baw deep after I have given the tip |

It's not good is it?
I have a balance problem. At its worst I used to fall over in the street a lot as crossing roads took me off-balance. I fell into the road and a car stopped just before hitting me. The driver didn't get out, just backed up a bit and swerved around me. The other pedestrians just walked by. I assume they all thought I was d*unk at 11am. |

I'd stop and offer what assistance I could for a lone female, even if just company till the breakdown folk get there...a few years ago I was taking my niece shopping when we witnessed an accident (we were about the 4th or 5th car behind a woman who lost control and slammed into the dike (not a lesbian )) All the cars immediately behind the crashed car carried on, we stopped and helped the poor lass out of the car, fortunately she was only shaken up, we got the breakdown guys out, phoned the police and kept other motorists aware of the hazard for an hour till the police turned up - was bloody freezing but I couldn't have just carried on without stopping to help |

So you are relying on the emergency services having the wet wipes? |

"i just call up the AA and my knights in yellow vans come rescue me "
I don't see changing a tyre as a breakdown though.
We learnt how to change a tyre at school. We also learnt how to check the oil etc, wire a plug and hang a door
Was a brave teacher who let use practice in his car lol |

I stop and help people because i have been in the situation where i have needed help and have been extremly grateful to the people who stopped. |

If you were flashing the stockings I would definately stop, seriously I would stop to give a hand. It is a shame most people don't nowadays.
