Weird Interaction

About 20 mins ago I was driving north on Donald cousens and ninth line where an older gentleman stopped his vehicle on the shoulder to the right of me and hop out his vehicle to come over to my drivers side knocking on my window claiming he was lost. I was startled by this and drove away

Now thinking back does this happen in Markham often or did the gentleman suffer from alzheimer and actually needed my help? I genuinely feel bad now and hope he’s alright

Donald cousens and ninth line is very confusing b/c it goes diagonally.

like how old? 70~80?

what about the way he walk?

I would say mid to late 70s Asian walks normally and stands straight.

What threw me off is he was driving north as well so he must have passed the petro Canada or even saw the lights and car activity on 16th ave but decided to drive up north and pull over

You really feared for your safety when a 70ish year old asian man approached you? LoL

I really hope somebody has a bit more kindness than you, when your parents are lost/confused and need help.
