what else can they legally charge him with? maybe the fine will get his name into the system.

im not surprised his wife thinks hes a nuce guy.

hopefully he can go to court and fight it if its truly a musinderstanding.

edit: for the girls to remember his plate number and then notify the police is says to me he did something inappropriste. most people would say 'no thanks' and then forget about it.

You guys are pretty quick to believe his side of the events without hearing anything else.

Given that TFA rather clearly indicates that his side and the girls' side match exactly methinks you did not RTFA.

Umm... nothing. Which is good. Because on these facts he committed no crime. You don't charge someone and convict them of a crime because you feel like he's creepy and might have been up to know good. This is America FFS.

Next time someone will freeze to death and everyone will scream that people drove right by and never offered to help. Sometimes common sense is not so common.

Not nescarily remember in this day and age you have airlines that will not let an adult male sit next to a kid on a flight for fear he is a predator, kids today are taught to not trust adult males.


I for one will not stop to help someone unless its a medical emergency... run over by a car for example... stuck in a ditch to bad... walking home in bad weather sorry.. this guy gets reamed trying to be a good person a guy in oklahoma stopped to pull a woman out of a ditch in a snow storm and she gets his tag number and her insurance company goes after him for the damage to her car.

If the guy had more game, those girls wouldn't have been talking to the police.

I'm a man; I'm not dumb - i wouldn't stop to help kids or even most single women unless they were within my dating range or much older than me. The only way I'd offer help is if I'm with another female. Men are dangerous and it makes sense for women and children to be leary.

The police were moronic to charge him.

The police chief is even more of an idiot. Whatever happened to being a good Samaraitan? He actually said that the guy should have called the police and have the police give them a ride home. I didn't know that being a Taxi service was part of their duties.



exactly.. police get offended if tou ask them for a ride. they are not taxis ( ive asked and thats what i was told).



Hell, I got rear ended in a freaking intersection with my one year old daughter in the back seat and it took the goddamn police almost an hour to show up. Now they're supposed to be an on demand taxi service?

This whole thing sounds like some government bureaucrat is politically covering his cowardly narrow ass.

I didn't read the article but he needs to sue the hell out of that city.

I changed an older mans tire the other day.

I may need to go on vacation for a while to keep off the grid.
