In the 60's, my friends and I would stick out our thumbs and travel all over the place. We never had to wait more than a couple of minutes to get a ride. It was actually a social thing and we met some very interesting people. I had a Ford van and would ride around with no other purpose than to pick up hitchhikers. They were everywhere.

The times have certainly changed and helicopter parents do their children no favors.
Right, The fear of what might happen has distorted reality to where you really can't trust people you should. I generally don't trust anyone. I'm working on it.
