Absolutely no way, never ever! Under no circumstances would i ever get into a strangers car. even if it was a woman driver. You just dont know if that person is a knife weilding madman/woman. You need to ask yourself "why are they asking me to get into their car?" and "What might happen to me if i do?"

I feel the same way too. It would be far too risky to get into a stranger's car. One does not know these people and they could be up to no good. A person could be robbed, beaten or even worse still, killed.

Yeah maybe if I wanted to be raped or killed!!! NO way would I get into a strangers car. You would have to have never read a newspaper or watched t.v or ever heard any type of news what so ever if you decided to get into a stangers car. Why would a normal person drive around and ask people to get in their car!!! You might as well walk around with I am an easy target written on your back if you would even consider getting in to a strangers car that pulls up and they say get in!?!

Of course yes! especially if the one who are offering is sexy, why not. I'm a male I will not afraid. But it's different if the stranger male person will ask me, i'll not go with him.

Definitely not, I would always think of my protection. These kind of people asking you to hop in usually have bad intentions.. With this kind of situation, I will always go to a place with a lot of people so that he will stop. Usually, they will get scared with a lot of people and they would just leave and go reporting this to the authority would of great help so that crimes or bad intentions by these people be stop.Goodluck!

The answer is NO. Even if the driver is the most angelic, innocent-looking person, I will never hop in his/her car. First of all, why would that person ask me to get in the car? Although he/she will give me a reasonable excuse I still wouldn't go with that person. You wouldn't know what the real motive is. It's hard to trust just anybody nowadays.

Well, i would first ask him/her why? If he/she gave a logic explanation then i might consider :) But if he/she looks suspicious or uneasy, i will try to reject the offer nicely. After all, he/she is a STRANGER. Didn't our moms always tell us not to speak to strangers when we were little? hehehe... cheers

No way man!! Why would a stranger do that in the first place? Could be 1. he's out to kidnap me, 2. he's really out to kidnap me 3. or something even worse! Maybe I'll do this, i'll probably scream for help and try to get the cops catch the bad guy so there'll be less than one criminal out in the streets

Of course I won't! No way and why should I? It's a stranger and we aren't suppose to make friends with strangers, right? It's always nice to be safe. Whatever it will take, I won't get into his or her car not unless if I'm really aggravated and needed some help so badly and there's this man or woman who would offer me to take a ride to the place I wanna go. But still, I wouldn't dare go with that person as much as possible. :)

Male or female... the answer is NO. Definitely No. There is something i want to share with you. I read this from crimelibabry.com. I cannot recall her name.. but this happen to the girl that happened to hitchhike to go to her friend's house (or a realtive... just cannot recall..). A few cars did stop to give her a ride but she just say NO because they are males. Then when a car with a man and a woman with their baby stop, she decided to get into the car. She thought it must be safe. But later.. she was kidnapped and suffer for the next seven years (or more...).
