I have to say that safety was the first thing that came to my mind. I quote from the Q&A in the pamphlet that arrived in my mailbox today:
q. Is it safe? a. Maungaraki has a very low crime rate. However, sensible precautions are recommended, such as keeping a mobile phone handy and informing others that you plan to use the Hitch & Ride system.
The world may be a scary, unsafe place but I'm not sure that Maungaraki is. You would hope that people use good common sense. The pamphlet also explicitly states that "if you aren't happy with your ride offer, politely decline...".
