In todays' world, it does seem like people just drive by without checking in. I do understand that on a hiway in the dark...the safest place is to stay in the vehicle. But that also assumes that the occupant has a charged phone to call for help.

I had a situation last night where a vehicle that was 2 cars in front of me left a stop sign at a Tee style intersection to make a left turn thinking the vehicle on the thru road was going to make a right hand turn off the thru road. Well the oncoming vehicle started to slide as this car went into the intersection. They avoided the collision but the oncoming car nearly hit the turning vehicle plus the other one in front of me at the stop sign...just kept going. The lady who left a bit early to make the turn got stuck in a snow bank. I pulled over, but had to wait a bit for other vehicles to pass by to see if the car in front of me was going to be able to get free. Very minor situation inside a city, but sort of surprised me that no one else even thought to stop. Good reminder though that I need to put a shovel in the back of my truck though. I seem to use it at least once a year to help get someone free from a snow bank.

Good on Glencross for stopping to check in, and quite the co-incidence that they ran into each other a week later.
