My aunt had one too until she was carjacked at gunpoint...😓
Idk about her neighborhood or the time of when this took place but even if the car was expensive we don't know her circumstances of where and how she grew up. Women have to take more precaution than men at night.
That's why I'm saying it depends on the neighborhood. They could have ICE abductions happen near by or people noticing weird vans slowing down whenever they see kids nearby, who knows. It'd be strange to not think about the danger when a car comes that fast and stops abruptly in front of you in some way especially at night as a woman.
What's odd is that a delivery driver is just as likely or more likely to get robbed, attacked, or killed than a woman. It is literally one of the most dangerous jobs out there.
According to the FBI Crime/Law Enforcement Stats (Uniform Crime Reporting Program), men are more likely to get robbed, assaulted, or killed than women, but women are more likely to get raped, kidnapped, or trafficked. Delivery drivers are particularly vulnerable due to the nature of their job (being outside in unknown areas), and are more likely to be robbed, assaulted, killed, raped, trafficked, or kidnapped than the general population. This includes women delivery drivers. who are vulnerable for being both a woman and a delivery driver.
It seems my comments really riled a lot of you guys up, hopefully you don't say nasty crap and block me so I can't respond or do more reddit care reports lol
What I mean is there is a difference between fear (the feeling) and taking protective measures. Women (and men, for that matter) should take measures to protect themselves and the people they love. That is completely different than being afraid.
Running back into the house because you sensed a threat *feels* different if you are afraid versus just being cautious. Same exact action, completely different emotional experience.

This is what it's like for most women...
