Wait, hitchhiking is illegal (in the US presumably)? (Supplemental question: how do you make hitching illegal?)

In the UK I've met many interesting people both while hitchhiking myself, and while picking up hitchers. It is a practice that seems to have almost entirely disappeared here, not because it's illegal, but I guess because most people now have cars and some "stranger danger" worries.

You should watch Rambo: First Blood. Great movie.

		The (US-American) title of the movie is only "First Blood". :-) Only from the sequel on ("Rambo: First Blood Part II") "Rambo" is part of the film title, see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rambo_(franchise)...

		It’s sadly the only good Rambo IP.

As for "how": legislature passes a law against it like any other traffic law. Similar to jaywalking or prostitution (soliciting sex on the side of the road).
