I was driving home late one night with a friend of mine, and we saw a teenager walking on the side of the road carrying a skateboard. My brother was a skater, and this kid was out at like midnight on a road with no sidewalk. Since I had a big strapping guy with me, I backed up and picked him up. Turns out he worked at the mall and had missed the last bus home, and his parents had turned off their cell phones. His dad met us at the driveway and was really grateful we'd given his son a lift. If I'd been by myself I would never have stopped, but I'm glad it worked out.
