I was driivng west on highway 40 yesterday when I blew a tire, forcing me to move off the road onto the shoulder. There wasn't much room on the shoulder, and an oversize trailer nearly blew me off the road. So I moved over to the grass to figure out what to do. Just then, a MODoT truck pulled up behind me, and a guy got out and said he was there to change my tire for free.

Unbelievable.

I have a full-size spare on the rear of my Honda CR-V so it's easy to change a flat, and we had it changed in about 10 minutes.

I tried to pay the guy something but he wouldn't take any money.

He wouldn't even take my St Louis Bread Co chocolate chip muffin.

Go MODoT!
