I would like to speak out against the "hitchhiking boys" who appear during the summer vacation.

During the summer vacation season, I often come across hitchhiking boys. They are usually near the entrance to the highway, standing with a board with their destination written on it. Yesterday, when I was getting on the highway again, I ran into a hitchhiking boy. I have something to say to them.

Bad place to stand (-_-)

The hitchhiking boy yesterday had a board in the opposite direction of where I was going, so I couldn't give him a ride, but if we were headed in the same direction and I was in the mood to think, "I wonder if it would be safe to give this boy a ride., ,It's not that we don't want to give them a ride.

But in any case, they are all standing in the wrong place.

Cars can't stop suddenly.

They are usually standing just before the road where you turn onto the freeway tollbooth. As soon as they make the turn, they are right where the ETC and entrance is located, and they cannot make the decision to stop. they cannot make a quick decision to stop, and in any case, there is no space for them to stop.

On the other hand, if you stop there, you will cause trouble for the cars following you. It is rare for a car to stop just before a highway, and if it brakes suddenly and gets rear-ended, that would be a big problem.

I know I sound like a cold-blooded person without blood or tears, but I have no right to stop for a strange boy, causing inconvenience to the following cars and braking suddenly....

However, if you have never driven a car, you wouldn't understand, and I don't think that's unreasonable.

What's in the boys' heads?

And on the other hand, they will be thinking: "What is this?

How heartless the adults of the world are.
A fifteen-year-old boy, who was
I'm trying my best to plead my case under the blazing sun.
No one would stop the car.
The passenger seat is open.
Back seat, there's no one in the back seat.
Is there any adult with the warmth to stop?
Is this how the world works after all?

And.

No, no.

If they stood at least a little closer to the "200 meters to the highway" where there is space for cars to pull over and stop, there would be three times more cars stopping.

Hitchhiking around the country is the very essence of youth, something you can only do now, and I think it's very wonderful. That said, these days I am thinking with an old woman's mind, "If I think a little more about where to stand to make it easier for cars to stop, I might have even more wonderful memories.
