…People can be wonderful. Witnessed a road accident tonight on my way home - bloke came off his bike, landed underneath it. Had clearly hit his head, was very groggy, couldn’t remember his name or date of birth or what had just happened or where he was.

So many people stopped to help! Not to rubberneck, but actually help! I called an ambulance; a couple of guys kept him talking and got his information from him,; someone called his partner, someone else diverted traffic. Neighbours came out of their houses with blankets and put his bike somewhere safe for him. We all stayed with him till the ambulance came, by which time he was more responsive and will hopefully be fine.

It was weirdly heartwarming. All those people, with no connection to this man other than we saw him get hurt, all doing their best to help him. I found it very reassuring.
