I just saw this video - apparently from Russia....
Clips of a motorist doing good deeds.
There seems to always be something one can do for others in their travels every day (in addition to demonstrating proper driving etiquette!)
Around here we have Gopher tortoises (as well as Box Turtles) marching all over - crossing roads and dunes....I always watch over them. I once picked up a Florida mud turtle who was determined to go into a roadway - and took him to a huge creek and released him. It felt good....real good.
As a landscaper I usually have a shovel in my truck and when I see a dead animal in the road I always stop....and shovel the body off the road.
Blown over garbage cans are taken out of the road and placed by homeowners garage. I love doing this because no one else wants to...they just drive around like it's
perfectly normal to have someone's garbage can(s) in the road....
I don't remember stopping to escort a pedestrian across a road though. I just make sure I stop for them where it's safe to do so....especially in parking lots where I won't be whacked from behind by some clod who is oblivious to the concept of safe driving.
But this video does make you think about being a good samaritan....
