It makes me recall a situation I was in last year. I think the guys abandoned the plan, because they knew I was too innocent to even know what was happening. |

It is my philosophy not to pick anyone on the highway. I enjoy driving alone with my music. I don't want anyone to set me up. Ps: if you want to help anyone at all,please check their bag and pocket before letting them in and also let them know you will not stop half way. |

When doing distant travels. I don't. Simple reason: Police stops you, you know yourself. Them, what's in their bag? |

I stopped giving people lift many years ago after one family I helped stole my Blackberry despite the fact I helped them from where they seemed stranded late at night . |

A man once assisted a pregnant woman in his car in the company of his wife and 3 sons, on getting to a lonely junction she started complaining of full bladder, not knowing she was among a kidnapping and ritualist syndicate. The family were waylaid and ordered to release one of their sons or they would kill them all, he had to release his son named simon and they were instructed to enter their vehicle and drive off, he quickly reported at the next police check point, unfortunately the deed has been done, the boy was killed and organs removed. What still haunt the man, was the son's last word which was " daddy why me" |

musabayokanu:I do travel a lot by road and even I know giving lifts is a No! No! I have only ever once given lift to a person and it was a Police officer just immediately after Head Bridge in Onitsha. He said he was going to Agbor. Now the reason I even found myself talking to him was because I had stopped to pee by the roadside and he walked up to me. So I gave him a once over and he didn't look threatening to me. So I told him I can give him a lift if he answers all my questions properly. He said No problem. So I asked to see his Police I.D because he had a name tag on his uniform, He showed me and it matched. So I asked to see the content of his bag and pocket which he surprisingly agreed to. So I saw his pocket, checked his Bag and he was clean. His name matched with the name plate on his uniform. I told him I will only stop at Agbor junction and no where else and he agreed. So I put his luggage in the back and we set off.. It was a very pleasing Journey as he shared his Police stories with me and even gave me some smart security tips for road travel.. Tips like "Always pay attention to the other side of the road. Take not of the vehicles coming. They will be your first signal as to if there is a problem ahead of you" also "If you suddenly notice you haven't passed any oncoming vehicles in a while, find a safe place to stop and wait. Something may be wrong ahead of you". He said he understood why I did what I did with him and said it showed I was smart and security conscious and thanked me for the ride. Like I said, I enjoyed this my one experience but I have never done it again. It's very not advisable and if you must, make sure to check the person out "including a full body pat down" if necessary. If they refuse, then its fine. Let them stay and wait for another lift cos they are not entering my Car if I am not sure if you. MY CAR, MY RULES.. After all it's a free ride. My biggest issue however is the distrust in our society. As a road traveller, it's a common sight to see people with broken down vehicles on the roadside in need of some assistance. However the society we live in is so bad people can act vulnerable just to get you to stop. I drive a truck which is powerful enough to tow even an SUV and sometimes I realise all it will take is a simple tow to the nearest town to get them some help but I never stop. I always pray never to find myself in such situation cos I don't expect anyone to stop and I wouldn't blame them either for not stopping. Plus I would even be scared to try to wave down vehicles for fear of who I might be stopping. This is a very sad way to live as a people and a society. |

nkemdi89:OMG This touched me, really touched me Especially this part "daddy why me" In all honesty, why leave your son though? |

Never stop on the highway, unless it's an emergency or a flat Tyre, if necessary risk loosing the whole Tyre if you have a gut feeling not to stop till you reach the next village. |

Leez: ![]() Then you be learner for waka. Nigerian Police has searched my vehicle thoroughly from Boot to under seat, pigeon hope, glass compartment, arm rest, seat pockets, my luggage in the vehicle including browsing my plate number on FRSC website and checking my tint permit status online in the middle of an interstate highway. There is a very notorious group on Owerri - Onitsha expressway just after Obosi interchange and Oba junction. They almost always stop and search me. ![]() Within town you will rarely experience it. |

Leez:you're sick! how many times have you traveled long distances and encountered highway policemen? they'll make you show them your papers, confirm they're ok then proceed to search your booth, your car seats, and sometimes even your engine. don't mess with the police, especially when they're mean. |
