Hi A number of years ago I was going into my local town ( live on the outskirts about 2 miles) I had my 2 kids in the car with me and it was lashing rain. I saw one of my neighbours walking out of the estate and pulled in to offer her a lift. She got in and just as we were pulling up to a set of lights the car in the next lane cut across in front of me and this is what she said " It's a pity that he didn't hit you as I could have had a nice claim of both of you" I let her out and never gave her a lift again. She never said was I ok or that was dangerous. All she was interested in was why they didn't hit us so she could have had a claim. That made me think about giving people a lift. If something happens then what.? This is not to put a damper on the idea but just something to think about.
