Help each other in difficult times

The high speed and national highway in Japan was blocked due to abnormal snow in the weekend. A lot of passenger cars and trucks came to stand still, and some people could not move for 4 days in that.




The North Japan is accustomed to such a heavy snow, but it is rare for such heavy snow in the region from Kanto (eastern half of Japan, including Tokyo) to the south, and the public transportation system and road does not function at all if thick snow forms even for a moment. 
 

In that, on the Chuo road of Yamanashi Prefecture, it is said that the driver of the delivery vehicle of the Yamazaki bread freely supplied the stock of bread and sweetened bun to the other vehicle drivers who are stranded and could not move. 


Rather of scrambling for bread, each one thought of the other, and took minimum amount of bread. It seems that the bread was meticulously given to many people.  

It is said that the collection of thanks would be sent to the company for the clever judgment of the driver.

Help each other in difficult times
This is a favorite Japanese proverb.
