I feel safest in the monte bcuz it's the fastest & has the best handling. People are crazyyy drivers around here so you most def gotta have a maneuverable (& quick doesn't hurt) car to avoid the nutcases

I live out in the sticks so there aren't too many bad neighborhoods around here.

I voted some of the time.

I always feel safe driving the monte around. It feels like it is always ready to react to dumb drivers, and what ever they do.

However, living just 2 blocks away from west philly, I feel pretty uneasy about parking it. I always make sure that it is parked on campus, where public saftey and Drexel Police pass by it regularly.

I really wish everyone else would learn how to park without destroying my car. Last week, I founf some significant scuffing on the driver's rear bumper from somone who failed at parallel parking. And someone leaving from a parking garage put a major dent all down the driver's rear fender. It goes from the back of the door past the gas cap to almost the end of the car. The only damage to the car came from other carelss drivers. Its really sad that people can't respect other people's property.

I generally feel pretty safe in both my home area, and my Monte. However, some places not far from my area are not the best places to be at certain times of the day.

Generally i feel safe, at home when i know exactly whats going on and the the entire neighborhood is tight, it really eases the mind.

But, now that i'm back in college mode, i get uneasy, instead of getting a garage stall like last year for my monte like last year, i've had to make due in a small lot behind a house cause we moved, only thing is, its right on the alleyway where every drunk dumb*** loves to throw glass around or **** on anything in sight. It really doesn't help with the stress of classes

could be better, could be worse. im always a little tense when im down in town late at night, lotsa stuped people down there, and the wall mart in east stroudsburg is a bad place to be at night. but at home everyone on our street is pretty aware of whats going on, know a suspitious character when the see one, and deal with them accordingly. the police station is a 45 minute drive away in clear weather at 60 MPH, we mostly take care of ourselves. thankfully we've never needed to call the police.
