    The lady in the wheel chai is a hero. She always does good stuff in these videos.

    One more thing, if the person in distress is sitting down, come down to their level. But don't bend to speak to them like you would a child, just sit near them on whatever they're sitting on if there is room (and obviously not in a wheelchair). The ground is fine too.

    Good vid, just a couple of things to point out, it would be really nice to perhaps crouch down to the lady in the wheelchair, equal eye level its not so intimidating, could also hold her hand, that's always nice and comforting,
    And of coarse, why not move the bike, the rider might like it back, also it could be a trip hazard, getting in the way, could be damaged who,s to stop someone else picking it up and trying to ride off,could be another accident, (Yep, I,m an advanced first aider and proud

    I tried this. Was just insulted and intimidated in public. Why bother sometimes?

      Because it's always good to show the good in you. There are always people out there who will try to let you down but you mustn't let them drag you down and take control of you, you should be proud of the good things that you've done. We need more people like you, and you're gifted in your own ways. Be proud of that.
