Especially for a woman who has been brutalized before. <br /><br />I'm aware of two criminals (one named Chessman and the other named DeBartelevan) whose M.O.'s were to use flashing lights to pull women over. One just raped them and photographed them so they wouldn't tell the police. The other raped them and then killed them. <br /><br />If you are driving a car worth less than a $500 fine, then you are at an added disadvantage in that you probably can't afford a lawyer to defend you. <br /><br />I think that is Catch-24 for women on the roads. One solution is to buy a Bluetooth device that allows for hands-free calling while driving. I believe they are legal in most states and cost less than $100.<br /><br />Oops. Catch-25.<br /><br />My bottom line recommendation: listen to how you *feel*. If you feel scared, there is probably some subtle clue not obvious to you that has fired up your subconscience. <br /><br />LISTEN TO IT.<br />~~~~~AskTheGeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06354833219992420022noreply@blogger.com
