Suggestions for driving/around town games like a scavenger hunt?

Question

There's nothing to do in my tiny town, so I'd like ideas.
I know of a lot of people who do scavenger hunts ("Get a picture of a group hug with your team and a stranger" "Find someone with the same name as a team member" etc).
But I've also heard of some game with two teams in cars. One person from each team goes with the opposing group and is blindfolded, driven somewhere within the fair boundaries, and dropped off. Once both individuals are dropped off somewhere, they have to call their own team and describe their surroundings/ try to walk the way back to somewhere they recognize and get picked up. The first team to find their lost person and make it back to the checkpoint wins that round.

Ever heard of any games like that? Any other ideas of things to do?

We always played hide and seek -  we usually had at least 3 cars with 2 or or more in them, but there's no real limit.  One car would be "it" and would go hide while everyone else hung out for 15-20 minutes.    Think places like the local grocery store lot, parks, the school, on the shoulder of a road, etc.  Once the "it" car is hidden he let us know and gave hints, first car to find them is it next.  We always used cb radios to give clues - but I guess you could use cell phones now.  It sounds similar to your drop off scenario but a little safer as no one is left alone.
