轮胎漏气、司机身体不适 网友助截停车子施援

若在路上看到有车子缓慢行进，大部分人都会直接越过，但是眼尖的网民发现一辆缓慢行驶的轿车，已有两个轮胎漏气，急忙上前阻止，甚至还发现了轿车司机的身体虚弱，几乎不能步行了！ 署名Amy Sim的网友今日（6月10日）在脸书群组 SG Road Vigilante发帖，指她今天在榜鹅路（Punggol Drive）遇见一辆缓慢行驶的轿车。眼尖的网友当时发现了轿车的左边，即乘客座那一边的前后车轮都已经漏气了，吓了一跳，立刻跑上前“堵车”。 她向车子的男司机解释车子状况后，就帮忙后者招来拖车师傅。 在等待拖车师傅时，网友发现男司机非常虚弱，于是就问他是否需要联络其家属，但是男司机坚持表示自己很好。而当拖车师傅抵达，才发现男司机单单是下车、行走数步，再上拖车师傅的卡车都很困难，双脚无力。 网友不禁开始担心，若继续让男司机继续驾驶，或将危及他自身和其他道路使用者的安全。 Amy指出，男司机居住在榜鹅第288栋组屋，希望有认识的人士或认识其家属的人士能够伸出援手，劝请男司机勿在身体不适时驾驶。帖文中，她也感谢拖车师傅伸出援手，协助这名“行动不便”的男司机。 网民们对Amy的做法按赞，认为这种热心人士是社会不可或缺的一部分，值得效仿和学习。…
