I ran into someone’s car once, but that was cuz I was biking in broad daylight and the guy sped through an intersection.

I have expected this to be "he surprised him with an ass whopping" or some shit.

Another small dent in my distopian view of the US.

Kid in the back is thinking about stealing it

Bring a camera crew if you are going to do something selfless!!!!!

That single gesture will remain a highlight in that kid's life no matter how old he grows. Genuine gestures of kindness have great impact.

this is why you wear a helmet

Could also be that he is taking away his bike, we will never know.

and a car repair bill

Kudos grandpa. Let's hope the kid grows up with your morals.

My first bike with handbrakes, I tried going down a really steep hill. Too fast to turn, I slammed in to a garage. Went to the same area 1/
About a fifteen years later, same garage had the same me shaped dent. Ahh, nostalgia

Definition of: "Fixing the problem at the source". Rather than blame the kid, he helped make sure that kid wouldn't end up crashing again.

a new bike without brakes too

Meanwhile neighbor's kid couldn't wait for me to move my car away from where he was playing and I accidentally out loud offered murder.

Here—now you can bike to work to earn enough to pay for denting my fucking car.

I loved the posts about the kid that got beat with jumper cables.

You didn’t want his buddies asking for new bikes too.

Why'd he ride a bike with no brakes...
kletskoek
If your options are a bike with no breaks or no bike at all, lots of people, especially kids, are going to ride it anyways
KileyBarker
This is going to surprise you, but brakes can wear out and sometimes even -break- hehe
...So why'd he ride a bike with no brakes?

How is it some human beings can be so ridiculously awesome and And even worse ways of the shitty ones seem to b the ones who end up n charge
because decent ppl don't fight so hard for power

I have a dent in my car just above the right rear door handle stretching onto the rear quarter. Kid came out from between 2 cars & hit me...
ChicanoBatman
I was that kid 40 yrs ago and it was my buddies dad no less. Sat on curb freaked out afterwards waiting for mom. -
Buys me a new bike even when I kept saying it was my fault. Scratched his Cadillac. Learned some lessons. Caddies are tough. Folks are nice.
...I didn't see the damage until later. I fixed his handlebars because they'd twisted sideways, told him to be way more careful.
He was about 11. It scared the shit out of him. Was so close to being run over.

Good on ya', it's scary being a kid on a normal day. +1
HarryDresdenIsMySpiritAnimal
I'm thankful for situations like this. That kid could've been seriously hurt, but now they have a little fear to make them think.
OhMyYoureSexxy
Then you handed him the repair bill
Nope. Never saw the kid again. I'm stuck with the repair. Haven't even gotten an estimate for it. Happened in August.
