Urban myths

There’s one I’ve heard dozens of times over the years with slight variations.

It usually involves a lorry driver and a hitchhiker. Or a motorcyclist giving a stranger a lift home. It always ends up with the person just vanishing into thin air. And at the exact point they vanished, the other person somehow always finds out that a person of a similar description had something terrible happen to them there, many years ago.
 
Another one relates to a middle aged guy, with his few purchases, in a long supermarket check out queue. Suddenly further up the queue a woman in her 60s turns round, looks shocked and does a double take. She approaches him hesitantly and says quietly "You know you're the spitting image of my son who died suddenly last year. The very last words he said was Thanks for everything you've done for me ma and I'll see you later tonight." She wells up, sobbing and says "It would mean so much to me when I leave if you would repeat those last few words."

The guy is touched, thinks what the hell, and speaks them loudly when the woman exits the store. As he is ready to pay his bill the cashier hands him a long till receipt and said "Your mother said you'd pay her shopping bill"
