I was about to mention that although I'd like to think I'd do it, I don't know if I would -- I thought of a time that I had.
It was about 2 am and I was driving behind an abandoned parking lot (I think it was Safeway) and this BIG black guy (taller than me, much wider than me) jumped out in front of me. He asked for a ride to his house (about 15 minutes away) and I drove him. I don't know if I was asking for trouble that night, but it ended up working out fine. We chit-chatted and he got a ride to his house. He offered to hook me up with something (he never really specified) the next day if I called him up, but I never did.
I think it was worthwhile. Then again, I'm a big guy with an invincibility complex.. sooo.. I could understand not picking up hitchhikers.
