Sure, but when I look at things like Nextdoor this is the prevailing attitude regardless of whether it’s true or not.

Definitely. I do feel like this attitude has contributed to the decline in hitchhiking in recent years. Still there are enough decent people to make it viable. I did end up having to wait a while in some areas to get a ride (pro-tip wear sunscreen). Anecdotally every single person who picked me up smoked weed although in CA/OR/WA that might have just been a coincidence.

My experience in hitchhiking was the same ha ha, probably half the drivers were smoking while driving.
