　　, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.

　　But the reason may be

　　27

　　complex hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are

　　28

　　. Plenty of people

　　29

　　hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they

　　cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?

　　Three-quarters of the UK population have

　　will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small.

　　33

　　my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. The people who picked me up were very interesting lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple

　　34

　　in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes(家伙) in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help
