at a set of traffic lights on a busy main road in Mt Maunganui, so I push them off and help them as best I can, and they ask "will the car get us back to Auckland!" Not unless you're pushing, it won't!

The lack of understanding of how a motor vehicle works is outstanding.

Every time I'm on call, this exact scenario happens to me too. On average one car a week. I attend a breakdown, tow them back to the garage, do head a gasket check, blown. "Will we make it to Auckland!" Errr.NO!
