I have seen many people don't help others in finding an address. They just give a vague answer. Sometimes they lie that they don't know where it is. They seem to be in hurry and don't want to waste time in helping others. I think we should always help unless and until heaven is falling apart bcoz that person may be in dire need of that address. I think it is very rude not to help others in finding address. What you guys think?

I think I must have something on my forehead saying "Ask me for directions" because I get asked a lot. I'll help if I can, if they are looking for somewhere I don't know I'll usually direct them to a nearby garage or shop and tell them to ask there. I wouldn't ignore someone who was lost because I know how horrible it is to not know where you are!

I always try and help the best I can even though my best isn't very good. I think a vague answer is better than no answer. people these days have become very rude and anti social. i think peoples attitude need to change when helping others regardless of whether its finding an address or something else. i know the world has got a little colder towards eachother so stop whining about it and help change it

We cannot blame other people for not helping strangers when they asks for address or directions. Some people pretend to asks direction and asks you to accompany them,and once you reach in an isolated place or where people are not around,then you will be robbed by that stranger. It happens and news spreading such kind of robbers operation. Now,when someone asks me address,i just simply give them instruction,like how to get in there or what to ride,then tell that person that once you reached there he/she can asks other people for the final direction.
