No. If it's a total stranger, not picking up the hitchhiker could save your life. I never had my driver's license, but if I had my driver's license and my own car in answer to would I pick up a hitchhiker, it would depend on who the hitchhiker is. If it's someone who I went to school with, a co-worker, a family member or a friend that I know very well and I know that I'm safe with that person, I'd pick them up and drive them wherever they wanna go and drop them off wherever they want to be dropped off. But if it's a total stranger or someone that I barely know, I wouldn't even slow down. If it's someone that I know who's famous for hurting or robbing people or raping women, I wouldn't even slow down.
Hard Target.

They knock out the hitchhiker and rape them. They stab, shoot or strangle the hitchhiker to death dispose of them in the woods. Sometimes they tie them up and hang them in the woods and the hitchhikers are found dead. Sometimes it's the hitchhiker who kidnaps, robs, knocks out, rapes and murders the driver.

Hitchhikers don't give a damn about school schedules, honey. They'll just keep on thumbing it down the road, hoping someone will pick them up and take them where they need to go. School, work, doesn't matter to them as long as they're on the move. Just watch out for those creepy drivers, okay?
