* Always trust your instincts. But ''don't panic''!
* Try to be good conversation for the driver for tips see [[etiquette]]
* Hitchhike with someone you know. On hitchhike forums (such as at [http://couchsurfing.org/group.html?gid=12 the CS group], or [http://www.jayride.co.nz Jayride] for [[New Zealand|NZ]] or [http://www.digihitch.com/ Digihitch] for [[North America]] you can find other hitchhikers.
* It might a good idea to get yourself some [[pepper spray]], just in case. But it can be illegal to carry in some parts of the world so be aware. Also it might not be a good idea to use in a closed space as you'd get a good dose of pepper yourself. There are also canisters of ''pepper gel'' which emit a stream of gel instead of a spray mist, which could save you in enclosed spaces.
