My mom lives in Fishers. It's surrounded by gravel pits and rural industry, although in itself an upscale town, especially Geist.
The state of Indiana, and I guess all the other states, should insert a class in their school curriculum about personal safety. Is it more important to learn how to make a coffee cake (home Ec) fix a flat tire, or to know basic rules of personal safety?
One rule would be, always make sure you have enough gas so you don't have to stop late at night, when the gas station isn't open. Lately, I've been so spooked that when I realized I didn't have enough gas for a 50 mi. drive, I
had to stop at 5 a.m., still dark, and it scared me. What is the world coming to when you're afraid to stop for gas? But still, it's an easy place to be accosted when you're alone and the place is closed.
