Well coming home from a random trip to the 4th nearest supermarket (wanted to stretch the cars legs a bit) just getting towards the village in which I live and as I come around the corner I'm greeted by the sight of a van on its side in the road 
Now I assume this had only just happened as there was no one else on scene and the road at this time of day is fairly busy, but amazingly the 4 cars infront just edged round it and carried on
I pulled past and stopped as did the two cars behind me. One guy went over to check the people inside, the other got straight on the blower and I thought the most use I could be was to slow the traffic coming the other way as it was on a blind bend and the road was greasy. After I'd stopped a few cars and therefore stopped the likely hood of someone flying round into the carnage I went back over.
I helped the guys get out, luckily of the three of them only the driver was injured with what I suspect was a broken or fractured arm as it was already starting to swell a bit. We kicked all the stuff that flew out as it went over to the side of the road and I helped get the van back on its wheels to leave at least one lane clear. At that point someone said about getting some of the traffic moving so that the police and ambulance who were on-route could get there easier. As my car was at the front of the queue I thought it was probably best that I just cleared off so I checked to see if anyone else was staying (a couple were and pulled up onto the curb behind the van) and then shot off.
Sorry for the rambly post it was just a bit of a "WTF" as I came around the corner and wanted to share!
The main reason for my post though was how on earth could people pull up to the van, look inside (it was clear people were in there) then just drive off
I wouldn't wish it on anyone but if the tables were turned wouldn't they want people to stop for them 
Edit- thats the second time in 2 days I've come round a bend to find an obstruction in the road. Yeaterday it was half a tree off a blind bend. I can confirm the brakes on the Octy are in full working order thats for sure
