How do you get out of giving someone a ride?
How do you get out of giving someone a ride? If someone is asking you for a ride — or any favor, for that matter — honesty is the best policy. Simply tell the person that you can't. When you decline, they will continue looking elsewhere. They have moved on.
What to do if someone offers you a ride?
You accept graciously and with thanks. Then try to return the favor someday—not necessarily as giving them a ride, but some other kind of favor. Doing each other favors is what cements relationships.
