On my way to work this morning when I hear this grinding noise. Pull over and put on the hazards. Turns out it was nothing more than some dried brush that had gotten caught underneath and wrapped around moving parts, but while I was waiting for help three MINI's drove by and just looked at me. A woman in a Miata stopped to make sure I was okay and a landscaper stopped and figured out the problem. Just surprised that no MINI owners stopped. I know it's not a requirement just because you own the same type of car, but geeze...
In situations like this I just speculate that each of them was on a strict deadline to get to some place important, statistical anomaly and such. Helps get through the day.
