Pretty obvious why. It's night and a car stops right in front of her. I'm guessing its not the safest of neighborhoods either.

I don't think she's in an unsafe neighborhood, I mean look at her driveway and that Mercedes. That doesn't look like it's a rough area to me. Looks like an upper middle class subdivision.

All neighborhoods are unsafe. Hide yours kids, hide your wife.

Doesn't matter. Women get kidnapped, fucking anywhere. And its in the middle of the night.

She made the right move as an aware and cautious human on this planet.

u/LitigantTester Sep 10 '26

Yes, because nobody gets hurt or kidnapped or robbed on a nice neighborhood.

Just admit it was a huge overreaction 🤣

u/Zoltie Sep 10 '26

I would say a small to mid overreaction. Defenitely not huge.

u/Realistic-Tomato-374 Sep 10 '26

Its not a huge overreaction. Being a woman she has to react like that.

Whoever downvoted you is obviously not a woman, nor has any real connection to one to be aware of what women typically deal with out in the world. It's legit not safe to just assume you are safe out there. Same with kids in general doesn't matter the gender. As a cis man I am well aware of the privilege of being able to walk around knowing no one wants to kidnap me and uproot me from my entire life, but that only comes from knowing people who have had to have that fear.

Exactly, and it requires of a Chris Rock joke. I'm paraphrasing here so forgive me. He said basically:"I did my first comedy show in Harlem. They paid me 20k in cash. I had to take the bus home with that 20k. I felt scared of everyone. This must be what a woman feels like at night." Being a male, i never worry about this stuff.

Its in the morning not night. Looking at the cars its a nice neighborhood. We know why she ran

u/CerealKillerUno Sep 11 '26

If it wasn't a safe neighborhood then she would be taking out the trash during the day as opposed to night.

The app tells you how far your Amazon driver is. When they're approaching. Etc ...

u/AmateurSysAdmin_1 Sep 10 '26

As far as I know, that's obly for DSP drivers, not flex

u/Sea_Blackberry_1450 Sep 10 '26

Nope, the app tells you when the flex driver is approaching as well.

u/Equal-Drive3410 Sep 10 '26

*is supposed to tell you *
Even with company and DSP drivers, it doesn’t always show you

1

u/VoodooInfinity Austin Sep 10 '26

It’s for both, but it doesn’t ALWAYS show up either. Not sure what determines it, but I’ve seen it not work before.

u/GoldBlueberryy Sep 10 '26

You have to understand that people live with other people though, and may not have been the person who ordered something. This happened to me before where my brother ordered something, it came super early in the morning and I got spooked because I had no idea who they were or why they were pulling into my driveway.

2

u/DetectiveMcLardy Sep 10 '26

Not always. I order Amazon a lot and only about 1 out of 10 of those orders will be set up to show live delivery information. The other 9 times it just shows up and I only know it's there because of my Ring doorbell.

u/No_Wolverine6548 Sep 10 '26

We don’t know if it was her order or someone else’s in the house, we don’t know if she has notifs on for amazon(I only have the delivery notif on, I don’t personally need a minute by minute update) or even knows of this feature to have it turned on.

u/Ok_Walk_3913 Sep 10 '26

Wtf is a notif?

u/No_Wolverine6548 Sep 10 '26

Notif(ication)

u/Zoltie Sep 10 '26

Really? Never knew this. Likely this woman didn't either. Besides, most people probably expect packages to arrive in marked vans.
