re: Have you ever picked up a hitchhiker?

When I was in college me and my best friend worked together, I had driven him to work that evening because it was snowing and I had 4x4. On the way home around midnight it is still snowing and the interstate is covered. We come up on a corner and can see tire marks leading into the middle barrier and then back across all three lanes to the guard rail where a busted car is now sitting partially sticking out in the far right lane. As we finish rounding the curve and past the crashed car I see a guy walking down the shoulder towards the nearest exit about a mile away. Without really thinking I tell my friend let's pick him up and take him to where he needs to go. Keep in mind this stretch of interstate isn't in the best part of town. So I pull up next to him and tell him to get in, he says thanks and hops in the passenger seat and my friends gets in the backseat behind him. As soon as he gets in the whole truck smells like alcohol and he starts rambling on how it's not his car but he just put new tires on it and hopes they aren't ruined. I quickly realize my mistake and ask him if he wants us to drive him home. He says no just drop me off at the store at the nearest exit because they have a phone. As we get off the exit and he points me in the direction he wants us to drop him off I see it's a combined fried chicken and liquor store. So drop him off at the entrance and he slurs out a thanks man and we go our separate ways. I turn around and look at my friend and he has a wtf look on his face and I see he has his knife out just in case he tried anything. We both concluded that we were probably accessories to atleast a few crimes that night.
