I have yet not to stop and ask if someone needs a ride . Although I live in an area in Georgia where there is not a lot of "stuff" going on .
You may have saved this person's life or prevented something bad happening to them .
Or , the delay was MEANT to save you from something bad.
Be thankful that everything turned out ok.
A life lesson learned perhaps by the both of you.
