It's the nice thing to do and perhaps the person will recognize the gesture.

Anytime you can help someone it's the nice and good thing to do.
In the end of it all you will blessed for being kind "even" if you were taken advantage of, maybe then "even more so".
If all they ask is a ride to where you both have a common destination then i don't think you are being taken advantage of.
Whenever i have done good for another it always seems that in the end i was the one who received the good.
Whenever i have done bad to another, seems it comes back sooner or later to remind me of my deed. I would rather have good comeback rather than bad.
Don't worry about being taken advantage of, you are the one doing the good thing, doesn't matter the "motive" of the other.

I believe it is a nice thing to do. It is your vehicle and at any time you can tell them I don't feel like giving you a ride anymore. If you feel that you're being taken advantage of, then stop giving them a ride.

Its a nice thing to do, no doubt, but if I was the one doing all of the riding, I would at least offer to pay some of the gas expense, even if you are going to the same places anyway.

I don't think they are taking advantage of you, unless they are being inconsiderate of you at inconvenient times. When they start asking you to go out of your way quite often, then yes you may be need to find out if they really need that ride.

Just a nice thing to do. If there is no inconvience what's the big deal. Not costing you extra in gas or time.
It's sad really that not enough being nice "just because" happens anymore.

Its a nice thing to do. However, when this person expects you to do it, then they're taking advantage.

it's only once a week. As long as it does not put you out then it's cool.
