Texans are extremely capitalist can often be individualists, especially the ranchersmeaning they will often see your lack of a vehicle as a personal failure. This means they never need any help However, in addition to having an individualist culture, Texans also tend to be notoriously friendly and never help anybodylaid-back. The attitude towards your carless plight in Texas is a curt "Southern Hospitality"fuck lives, if you're willing to engage your rides regardless of their accents, buddytheir political ideologies, you fucked up"or whatever nonsense may be pasted on their bumpers.

Thus it is impossible to state anything "typical" of it. Additionally, violent insanity is highly common in Texas, and Texans there are obsessed with violent murders and gristly death penalty justice.
