When Driving, Is It Advisable To Offer Lift To Persons Standing Along The Road? by promire2004(f): 7:49pm On Apr 23, 2013 |
Hey everyone, there is this trend I've noticed in our roads and high-ways. People leave car parks and would prefer to stand along the road, just to get free ride. With the menace and frequency of crime and kidnapping, I think it's a very risky thing to do. It's however common amongst ladies.(I'm a lady) so please don't eat me up for speaking the truth. What's your view on this? Can you carry a complete stranger along the road or express-way all in a bid to help the person? |

I rarely offer strangers a "lift" however on the few occassions i did, i made sure i used my instincts before picking them up because i can smell danger from miles away. A funny incident happened to me last month. i was right by my car unlocking the door to get in and this guy pulled up beside me in his car and asked me if i wanted a ride! Lolz i replied yes and i also told him to help me fold my car and stuff it in his boot before he can pick me up. I wonder what he was thinking |
