C breakdown assistance on a bustling motorway. The vibrant colors and retro aesthetic instantly evoke nostalgia for a bygone era. As we observe the scene, it becomes evident that this snapshot captures more than just a simple wheel change; it encapsulates an entire social history. A female member of the R. A.
