I recently pulled over to wait for a friend and sat on the side of the road on the way to a well known riding area and cantina on a warm, dry sunday afternoon. (off the main drag. For those who know: Aripeka and rt 19 toward upper deck and bay port).
After about 5 minutes, i started counting - 20 something passed me in the next 1/2 +/- hour. Two stopped on the opposite side of the road just before a stop sign and asked. 2 cagers stopped and one slowed in the direction my bike was pointing.
Man, times have changed.
"pay it forward." It might be you on the side of the road someday.
At least a thumbs up or down, and stop if you can.
