This morning Koos’ car started to fail. Me in it on the A20 highway near Schiedam. It seamed like it lost power. It would not speed up anymore. Dropping speed 70…60… gearing down to 3… to 2. No extra speed. On the leftmost lane. Danm. Do I need to make an emergency stop. Maybe. Move one lane to the right. Move to the rightmost lane….40 ..30 maybe. The emergency lane is about to end there, not to return for miles. Still no power.. let’s park!
Get my bag. Get out. Jump the security wall. Hmmm. Are they coming for me now? Nothing happens. Damn. I need to make a call. Wish that damn phone still worked!
Walk the side of the highway. No emergency phone pole.Ended up at the gas station -Â the one where I often get a small bite when I make this trip on the bike. The guy calls the ANWB for me. Koos has that pass, it’s right here. What is your plate number? Really don’t know. Oh, its written down here…
After 10 minutes They Come To Save Me. I can hop in at the front of this nice car. Wow. This is really something else for a free ride.
He drops me & my car off at some gas station. His colleague shows up 15 minutes later.None of them really did something. Open this here. Check that.
Car works again. Go!
