Good point, though I suppose the same reason I and a friend would have gotten out had I had a friend with me that night/...might be they same reason they both did....because you never know, and back up? Had my son been with me, we would have both exited the truck...taking 12~6 and 6~12.priusron wrote:Tow people don't need to exit the vehicle to ask directions, especially going in different directions.
My wife would have moved to the drivers seat , drawn and observed... a friend I have trained with, exited with me, an acquaintance of a non trained friend I would have asked to remain in the truck...phone out and 91 ....dialed
Or perhaps it was as simple as the hope that with both listening and asking.... one will understand what the gringo is saying and you can be on your way....?
