Hitchhiking gone sour - UPDATED!

[Punatic007]

This is why you don't pick up hitchhikers unless you know them. I've got some great lower Puna hitchhiker stories and I rarely picked them up, mostly when I wasn't the driver, I digress. My fav is the teenage girl at Kalapana transfer station who had runaway for the week-end I took pity on her on my way to Hilo where she lived to be reunited with her mother. She had a large black garbage bag filled with her clothes and whatever btwn her legs on the floor of the front passenger seat. Just as we came to drop her off near her home at a major intersection with a cop behind me whom I assumed she did not see....she reached into the bag, opened up another bag full of shake and proceeded to thank me by putting a large spilling handful of it btwn us on the front seat of my car. Then she tried to put another messy handful and I tried to stop her but not get the attention of the officer. Oh what a fun day that was! I don't even smoke.
Then there was the woman with a mother and small child with lice and another time the young couple with Dengue fever, the things you don't find out until you've picked them up.

edit for spelling.
