I immediately stopped the car & put my flashers on. I wasn't blocking the way only a parked car or 2 with no one in them. Turns out the man had tripped going up the curb and smashed his head into the building (no he wasn't drunk) and there was a lot of blood on the ground. He was looking feverishly with his wife for his car keys so he could get to urgent care. As we were attempting to help this couple. a woman came up and said "though I'm sorry about your accident I want to get my car out" Needless to say my husband and I were speechless. I told her I just had to get the man in my car to get him to urgent care. She was already in her car and backing up car by the time we walked over to mine. This couple had been there for a while and commented more than once how many people had passed but didn't stop to help.
The good news 5 staples later and all is well.
The bad news for me. I feel like The Villages has become just like the rest of the world. I used to think we were different::

Sorry that happened but as many have said there are selfish people everywhere including within the long time Villages' population. This woman could have been from any category of Villager.
