"My dad was a very hard-driving man."
"Can you give an example of a time he was hard-driving?"
"This happened before I was born, but I saw a newspaper article about it. One time my dad got a flat tire in the middle of the night. He didn’t have a spare, so he got out of the car and started rolling the tire to the nearest town, which was ten miles away. Along the way, a guy pulled over and offered to give him a ride. Once my dad was in the car, the man pulled a knife on him and tried to rob him. My dad knocked the guy out, got his tire back out of the car, and rolled it the rest of the way to town. When the cops found the man, he was still unconscious in his car. And it turned out he had a warrant for armed robbery."
