    Ring road recovery

    Well today it was hell on our glorious ring rd.
    I only had a short errand to run to a gun shop in Keilor and back again and was met with accidents and brake downs and with no emergency lanes it can really stuff things.

    On the way back just after the bypass traffic came to a crawl with people doing there best to get one up on the next, when I finally got to a car stuck smack bang in the middle of the road with people hurling abuse.

    I quickly pulled in front as 2 blokes were about to push him to the side but with no emergency lane that would not help much.
    I told the blokes I would tow him off the road and while I was setting up people were abusing me????

    As I started off I noticed another car broken down only another 150m further up.

    I towed him down to the service station on Dalton rd and got back on the uhf to see if the bloke was still stuck but it seems some one else had pulled up and towed him off the road...

    I was amazed at how people would hurl abuse at some one helping a motorist stuck, if that was there wife or teenage kid stuck or there mother would they not want some one to help???

    I have towed that many people off the road and changed tyres for ladies in distress . and just think it is the right thing to do and there is no second thinking it , you see and you help.

    Sorry just needed to vent!!!!
