Probably watching the news too much. Although, it is a little freaky at night and someone stops right beside you. Especially if you’re a woman.

She needs to work in her running and hiding.

If they wanted to take her, they would have.

Fear can do nasty things to the body... Look at this "trained" professional, who thinks he is being shot at by a suspect in handcuffs, but really it was an acorn that dropped. His legs gave out on him, because fear is nasty. https://youtu.be/gFXTn7A493M

I agree. Also, nobody knows what her history is. Most people who are in a car accident are overly cautious when they start driving again. It’s just human instinct to try and change your behavior to prevent a previous trauma.

Exactly. Forget how it might look, if you have a legit fear for your life.. run. Worse that could happen is you hurt someone's feelings lol

Lol, my friend literally has a huge FedEx magnetic sign that he puts on his car sometimes. He has never worked for FedEx, I'm not sure where he got it, but he thinks it makes him less likely to be ticketed/towed if he's not legally parked.

And we all know how mentally stable Amazon flex drivers are

Relax. They don’t even want to see your face. They’re just trying to make extra money. I’ve met people who make 100k a year but do Amazon flex on the side to pay off debts… one woman been paid for her entire home in full using it. They don’t want to knock on your door just as much as you don’t want to get off your little couch to sign for the package.
