Thanks to couple who provided ride

At approximately 8:30 a.m. on Dec. 1, I was traveling southbound on I-5 between Marysville and Everett when I got a flat tire. I discovered my spare was also flat. I was enroute to get my mother to take her to chemotherapy. During the next 1Z\x stressful hours, three sheriff’s department cars and one State Patrol vehicle passed me, not even slowing down, let alone stopping to assist me.

Truly disgusted, I locked up the car and started walking toward Everett Avenue. Finally, an elderly couple stopped and offered to give me a ride to a phone booth. I would like to thank this couple for their kindness. They were the only ones on the road at the time with kindness!
