I feel safer in it than any other vehicle I have. I trust it to protect me, and it feels good and drives so well that I feel like I am safe making any maneuver I need to and safe if the worst case scenario happens.

I don't feel quite as safe in my Torino, but I feel very safe with both of my seatbelts on in it, and I never feel quite right in our '50 Chevy truck which does not have seat belts.

 

 

I used to feel safer in my hometown. I chose to raise a family where I grew up, that says a lot. But things change over the years like having to check that they doors are locked every night.

I don't feel safe in places I used to work or shop (say... Salinas CA) and avoid them. Also stay on higher alert when in tourist areas. Don't want to fall victim to the bloodsuckers that prey on tourists.

As for the Monte - wasn't it awarded a high safety rating? My insurance agent said something and the rate is lower than the SUV it replaced.

 

yes and yes.............

 

I never feel safe. People are always trying to eat my Popcorn.

 

I feel safe most of the time.
As for in my Monte, i feel its safe when i'm alone.
When my wife and kid are in the back i tend to be more aware of my surroundings.
Just the fact that its a coupe and all.

 

you crowed the entire family into the back seat? NO one rides shot gun with Jose...distracts the side mirror view.



I live in the same area I grew up in however now on the north side..my direct neihbors to the east and south sides are in law enforcement and the cruisers are always present, bats and pistols behind the doors ect. as far as driving the wife and girls are very alert drivers and really don't hit risky traffic...myself I really don't think much about it with the exceptions of days known for heavy heavy party drunks!!! and yes I am one to call em in when I see em!!!

 

Oh crap. I didn't realize you said do you feel safe where you life and drive the car, Ithoguth you were asking if I felt safe just whenever I drove it!!!

Yeah, I feel safe enough. My girlfriend goes to NC State, that's a wild place sometimes if you go to the wrong place. I go to a smaller private college in southeastern NC and I feel perfectly safe walking across campus in the middle of the night. my hometown is very safe in my opinion... the editorials in the paper are about how we have too many police officers, hehehe.

 

Well, I live on Fort Sill... It is basically a gated community. I can't think of a safer place to live/work/drive.
