| Somehow, hitchhiking seems to be something of the past? Hitchhikers were a recurrent sight when I was a kid, but I haven't seen any in years. I wonder why (maybe the omnipresence of smartphones along with ridesharing apps like Uber has something to do with it). Personally, getting into a total stranger's car was never something I was inclined to do… and I never let any hitchhiker into my car either (not that I even had the opportunity to do so). In fact, my only experiences with hitchhikers were when I was a kid and my father taunted them by slowing down to give them hope, only to accelerate as they approached his car… I hated it every single time, and my complaints were pretty much useless since he was too busy laughing about it all. But anyway, what are your experiences with hitchhiking? Have you ever done it, or taken a hitchhiker along with you? |
| I hitch-hiked all Europe and Russia, I know how hard it is sometimes and always stop when someone needs help. I guess I would let even a total bum in, without any hesitation. Not a matter of virtue signalling or doing good, I just walked in their shoes and can relate. They better look for a better company though, haha. |

| I've done both. Coolest memory was sexy mommy hitting on me when I was in my 20s Weirdest memory was picking up a dude at 1 am who started telling me he just got out of prison and had been thrown out of his home by his wife. |

Not the smartest move NGL. I've hitchhiked at night a lot and always kept a big stone in my pocket for self-defense AND to throw at "funny" pranksters lmao |

| I love hitch hiking, just not in Czechia. Its super easy in the Balkans. Its a shame its so rare in Czechia now, my dad always taught me to pick up hitch hikers but almost no one does it here anymore. But maybe its because we have such a good transport system, I probably wouldnt do hitch hiking at all if all countries had cheap buses and trains everywhere like we do. |

| No and no, although I might take a hitchhiker if I wouldn't be alone with them, but I have never seen one while driving. |
