What would you do to avoid trouble if you are new in a city with a high crime rate like Detroit? |
Travel Info I know it's common sense to not go out after like 8 clock but that's just impossible !!! I don't have a car and still feel that I need some fresh air sometimes. Travel Tips new to detroit huh, depends on the area. but it would be wise to have someone or two with you, but too many also would mean looking for trouble. watch how you dress, check your stance. be cool but not a smart ***. dont stare directly into the eyes of a passer byer thats a challange. but have eyes in the back of your head. walk fast, dont stop, get where your going. and dont act scared or intimadated. but be on your guard. never stare at someone on the streets or in a car. never stop to give directions, just say: man you must not be from here and keep going. sometime for them to ask for directons is a distraction and you might get jumped from behind. just keep movin on..... detroit is getting better its movin downriver now.... Others I you do all that your are asking to get smacked. You don't have to be afraid to make eye contact but if you do the most that will happen is you might get a head nod or a "how are you doin". Stay away from the high risk areas and don't go out alone. leave. move. I go after 8p.. the nightlife in downtown is just starting As in any city, town.. be aware of your surroundings, dont stop to talk to strangers, keep cell phone handy Use common sense and you'll be fine It's ok to go out after 8 o'clock. Go with other people, stay in populated, busy, well lit areas. Like someone else said don't look at anyone in the eyes if you're stopped at a light or on the street. Don't stop and talk to strangers. Use your common sense and gut feelings. If you feel unsafe go into a busy public place like a restaurant or bar--there's usually security guards in bars. Be aware of your surroundings. If someone is standing there asking for money no matter how pathetic they look walk past and don't say anything. The main thing is to travel with other people. Oh, and carry pepper spray and have a cell phone on you at all times. |
