it sucks the fact you can't be a good Samaritan any more.
I don't stop to help anyone and haven't for years.
almost every day you read of something like this. or the same situation but a car jacking or robbery instead of being assaulted.

A teen girl suffered assault injuries after being flagged down by a man who appeared to be a stranded motorist west of Edmonton, say RCMP.
the advice in the article is the best advice.
"Police urge drivers not to stop for strangers on the road. Instead, Good Samaritans should pull over in a safe location and call local police."
I don't take the chance any more. I just call the cops.
I know someone who tried to stop an assault a couple of years ago. all it got him was a bad beating when the guy turned on him too. I'm not a tough guy with fighting skills. I have to think of being there for my daughter instead of trying to be a hero.
