The act of opening a vehicle to another who needs a ride opens both driver and rider to completely unpredictable and possibly dangerous interaction. Who knows who you're picking up? Who knows who's stopping for you? The eight short stories in this collection provide examples of the possibilities. Can this soul be saved? Is this guy really who he appears to be? Is he a complete con artist like me? Is this van stopping for me safe to ride in? Will this poor old woman hobbling in the pouring rain talk my ear off? I've got my own problems. Indeed, all drivers and riders do. These stories focus on the meshing and sometimes clashing of individual problems and personalities and the effects on both driver and rider.
