Car overheating badly near Oadby, pulled over before it got worse. Guy checked the coolant and thermostat on the spot, topped it up and sent me on to a garage he trusted rather than just towing me randomly.

Broke down near Wigston about 9pm, was expecting to be waiting ages given the time. Nope, 18 mins and someone was there. Battery replaced same visit, no faffing around.

Car died on me right as I was heading out to a night shift near Beaumont Leys. They understood how time sensitive it was and got someone to me fast, jump started it and confirmed the battery was actually fine, just needed a boost.

Van broke down near Knighton on a work day, needed it sorted asap. Fuel pressure fault, fixed roadside within about 45 minutes so I only lost half a morning not the whole day.

Puncture right outside Thurmaston at like 7am before the school run, absolute nightmare timing. They were quick though, repaired it there and then, kids only 20 mins late for school in the end.
