Women Shares Safety Hack On TikTok, Leaves Hair And Fingerprints On Taxis For Potential Evidence
It's better to be safe than sorry, right?
We live in a world today where security is always at risk whenever you are out in public. You just never know when bad things will happen; who does?
Traveling alone has always been an exciting yet scary experience, but thanks to those who have shared their experiences, solo travel doesn’t have to be so frightening at all. Taking some tips, whether for traveling or whatever your activities in life may be, will go a long way.
The best thing about taking advice is that you do not need to spend so much time and resources, and you will even save yourself from panicking about the situation.
We hope nothing bad ever happens to anyone when they are alone riding in a public cab, especially at night, but still, let’s always be very careful of the driver, the situation, and our surroundings. A user on TikTok, @brennalina, encourages her viewers to leave strands of hair and fingerprints inside the Uber or public transport they’re in.
She also saw this idea on TikTok and shared this very useful tip through a video, posting it on her TikTok for her followers to know. After learning this tip, she now does this every time she’s in an Uber.
What is all the fuss about this? Why would anyone leave hair strands and touch the windows to leave their fingerprints?
JUST IN CASE, at least there are bits and pieces of evidence lying around in the car if ever she goes missing. The investigators would know that she has been in the car if they search it.
TikTokIt’s quite a weird idea to catch on, but it can actually help a lot. Talk about being smart or what?
TikTokIn 2020, CNN reported that there were 141 sexual assaults in Uber cars in the United States alone. In 2019 and 2020, Uber received 3,824 complaints of five severe sexual assault cases such as “non-consensual kissing of a non-sexual body part” and “non-consensual sexual penetration.”
Still doubting this very helpful tip? This is truly beneficial, especially for women who are more at risk in these kinds of circumstances.
