While driving, I saw a cyclist fall off his bike on the side of the road up ahead of me. I immediately pulled over and got out of my car.He said he was okay but I could see his face was bleeding, so I opened my trunk and got out several cold packs and a bunch of first aid supplies like antiseptic wash and bandages. Cars were going by but we were safely on the side of the road and managed to tend to the worst abrasions and injuries. Thankfully he had not hurt his head.
After he was sort of patched up I offered him a ride to the nearest clinic but he said no thanks and that he would be okay. I told him he might need stitches and to go to the doctor (he said he would).
I was glad that I had all those supplies in my car---I had never needed to use them before and will now replenish them in case of something like this happening again.
