I wonder how much of the attitude towards the (legitimately) unknown people that we come across is caused by the media...
I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, but wouldn't pick up a hitcher simply because if a situation WERE to occur, you don't want the person to be at close proximity to you, in a moving vehicle.
But no, I don't strive to "avoid" people...what's the point? Enough folks do that to me to keep me happy.
