__NOTOC__
'''{{Mentostop}}''' (russian милиция=>менты + автостоп) is a funny and extreme way of h-hikinghitchhiking. Mentostop is effective in some poor countries with very strong police and military aspect. Could be extremely effective after terrorist attack and less effective after peaceful period. In fact people in unstable countries tended to help or save another crazy foreiner foreigner crossing their land from another terrorist attack. Why should you refuse them? Let the people feel them as a part of helping proccessprocess.
