What a tragic situation

Well that was counterproductive

Oops

She must be devastated...She tried to help and this is a guilt she will live with forever ..and I am not even thinking of that unfortunate man that died ..

His last words were 'don't help me'....

Are you serious? 🤭

You had me at woman driver

Task failed successfully

How tragic ! Was she charged with manslaughter?

That's why women shouldn't drive

Oh merciful heavens may god show mercy on her soul

🤔

Gotta hear both sides

RizzShow

Um...yes. There's also turning off the engine and putting on the flashers.

Oh no.

Wow is this freaky?

Why would you even print this? Who exactly would a story of this nature help? You should be ashamed.

Tragic😩

does this count as involuntary manslaughter?

Omg thats a terrible tragedy

Arizona woman!

Can she invoke the Good Samaritan Rule?

What the hell?

Not top 10

WOMEN DRIVER'S?

Gosh how horrible.

OMG that is sad

Oops!

Im sorry that is funny😳 sue me

Women. What do you expect?

Omg🙁

That woman must go through hell. A double tragedy.

*insert Seinfeld and curb your enthusiasm bassboosted theme here*

I blame January 2020 for all this bullshit.

Wow lady. Really...

AZ has a Good Samaritan law - it was an accident, she’ll be alright

This breaks my heart. God's peace to this woman.

But feminists still insist that 'the world will be a better place when WOMEN are in charge!' I remain skeptical.

This is so sad.. I'm trying not to laugh at some of the comments..

That poor women! She’s going to feel terrible about that for the rest of her life.

Interference veto.

The not so Good Samaritan eh... Poor woman 😳

Ford drivers, can't trust em.

Final destination

😨

Omg that's so sad

That's not what really happened.

Very sad and tragic story.

No good deed

But would he have died, if she had never stopped, anyway?

Omg Poor man AND Poor woman She will never get over the guilt She wanted to do the right thing

Dammit Karen, put the car in park first!

PineyMcknuckle Oopsies!

Sounds more like Florida.

Wow !! Now that's the absolute tragic definition of irony. God really is having a laugh at our expense

Good Samaritan or bad? Discuss

NotTheOnion

Oh my God this terrible for her & theman she wanted to help 🙏

This is extremely sad.

To be fair, sounds like he was about to die of something else pretty soon anyway.

omg. No good deed goes unpunished.

It’s sad, but who didn’t laugh a little.

Wow - how horrible for both parties Sad - whew

Is this a Cohens brother movie?
