*** LINK TO CAR TALK FORUMS ***STEP UP AND BE A MANWhy are there so few men driving the roads?
Somebody tell me.
When my daughter was born, long, long ago, my responsibility for her hit me like nothing ever had before. At that time, I realized her and my wife's vulnerability when they were away from me in our car. I hoped some decent man would come to their aid if it was needed.
But if other men were expected to help my wife, didn't I have to do likewise? It was an epiphany, and since that time, I have pulled over and changed countless flat tires for women, gotten gas for them, even installed a new radiator hose.
What a joy it has been too. What is so easy for a man most women won't even attempt. Denise Hubner would be alive today if a decent man had stopped to help her with her flat tire. After many such men passed her by at night, a monster stopped to abduct and murder her.
So here's the deal: Be a man. Help someone's wife, daughter, mother, sister.
You'll be glad you did. It's important stuff.
