Panic attacks.
A few years back I was on the way to a favorite fishing spot near where I live.Driving there I noticed a slow queue of traffic in front of me.
When I got close enough I could see a small van almost sideways in the opposite lane and everyone was going round it,so I jumped out of my
car and went to see what was up,in the van a guy was wide eyed and shaking and obviously trying to move off in the wrong gear revving hell out of his engine.
I opened his door and told him to take it out of gear and turn the engine off which he did and asked him what the problem was.

The guy was a parcel delivery driver and was running very late and couldn,t find his last address,so I told him to chill for a few minutes so we could sort it out.
It turned out that he was a few miles off track but the address he was looking for was a few doors down from my grandmother,so I gave him directions and he was on his way.
What annoyed me after was that all the other motorists were to busy to help even tho it was obvious that something was wrong,but still ignored him.

Unfortunately I think most people
get in their tin box and forget about the world outside it. I don't think that's so much of an issue with cars as it is with human nature... we isolate ourselves from other people.

That's why you, thinking outside of the box (see what I did there?) is so memorable.
