What is the right thing to do

I would have helped him/her out..Better ask him/her to show the ID..I think that would be enough..

Mandi - Looks like you have more than noble plans for the bloke.

fried, bathing will solve the smelly problem. afterwards yummy...

I no longer agree with exiledsaint. Homosexuals with drinking problems are very common in this area. But serial killers on top of all that? Come on!

Mandi - Even if he's a smelly Indian coolie?

if he is an indian man i will pick him up and let him to sleep in my room.

LOL ES :)

Follow what Brit said above.

Pick up the guy if you are 100% sure that he is healthy and will not have a heart attack while in your car. Otherwise you'll be held for questioning. Happened to a guy in Kuwait and he almost ended up getting into a mess.

I personally pick up people if it's day time and if I know there is no bus coming in that route but my case is different. I love to take calculated rizks.

Follow the rules dear and stay away from hassles.

If you can and you feel comfortable with it, pick them up. There's no harm.

I think many feel uncomfortable to do so because of fear of car jacking or robbery, but I highly doubt that would actually happen here.

just point the thumb backward & let him know someone is behind you...!

My colleagues used to stop and pick up those guys asking for lifts because it's the right thing to do, to help them. Transportation is very expensive and they help where possible.

I don't, not because I don't want to help but because I almost always drive alone, and being female, I only give lifts to guys I know eg. colleagues and friends.

Remember no good deed goes unpunished. The man you may pick up maybe a serial killing homosexual with a drink problem. You will get 1 year in jail for aiding murder, 5 years for homosexuality and 10 years for associating with a known drinker.

Its best to report these men to the police and say they looked at your sister in a funny way.

By giving some caps if they are not wearing,or some water to drink while waiting,no one can stop you doing this service.

Why risk eating? One may die of choking.....

hms, do what you feel is right for you. We can't tell you what is right or wrong for you. Its for you to decide.

Hard one this...but there will always be somoeone that needs a ride or lift and you cannot do this for everyone...imagine if everyone stopped at the side of the road to pick up people for a disaster it would be and then again you have the responsibility if something happens and the risk that they may harm you or something...

LOL also to you WK.. :P

LOL.. funny people thinking of excuses for not helping others. Simply accept that there is no humanity in you and be done with it. Why these excuses.. Maybe to feel good about yourselves.

i agree, better be aware and cautiuos than sorry

It is better not to do it. I recall a case in Saudi wheer a guy gave someone a lift. He had an accident and had to pay compensation to his passenger..

It's hard, but the laws here make it difficult to give someone a lift, no matter how much you may want to.

sometimes ignorance is the best medicine.....

Nice question fellow...but never intend to pull-over and pick them ride with you. Remember maybe police will catch you, and in any accident they are your responsibilty too! So better not, and stay away from any trouble.

Do what your conscience tells you is right as per the situation.

Follow the county rule is our duty

Pretend you don't see them??

No you should never help. You should let them burn there. maybe run them over.
