Reminds me of the many years I drove into Chicago from the burbs.
When traveling through sketchy areas, at traffic lights I always left room for an escape route ahead of me,
and was constantly checking the rear view mirrors.
Always made sure the car was in tip top condition.
I felt going through certain areas that it was like flying over a mountain range in a single engine plane,
and you sure hoped that engine didn’t fail!
I think it is wise to be alert even in certain areas of TV,
and the surrounding towns!
