Some people are naturally nocturnal; the communion between them and night is unbreakable, while others find themselves stuck out late at night due to unforeseen circumstances. Situations occasionally arise when we must travel at night or even find ourselves still on the road at night no matter how much we try to avoid it. What’s wrong with traveling at night? Experts say that risk to life jump from 20% to 60% at night. We are most vulnerable at night because regrettably, the Nigeria security agencies are less on guard at night where the reverse should be the case. So to add more realistic meaning to the saying, “security is everyone’s responsibility” do these seven things if for any reason you are to travel at night or find yourself traveling at night.
• Remove any law enforcement paraphernalia from eye’s view: Those that put up police, military etc emblem on their cars are more likely to be shot as first reaction from robbers when they meet such people at night. Reason is that you are most likely to have a weapon on you so they would not like to take chances. While these emblems give you free pass on police check points during the day, they put you at great risk at night.
• Do not move about with big cash at night: This puts you at risk not just with the robbers but also with rogue security operatives. Very many of them might not overcome the temptation of making away with your money and might not mind silencing you to make that happen. Always have spare cash with you from 5k to 20k because it’s also dangerous to be accosted empty handed at night by robbers.
• Avoid unfamiliar routes: Always stick to routes that are familiar to you. Most roads are dangerous at night but traveling through the road you are familiar with gives you edge in the face of danger. If you must take an unfamiliar route trail on a safe distance beyond a heavy duty truck. They pull through any road block by robbers on the highway.
• Always have a spare stocked in your vehicle: Apart from ensuring periodic maintenance of your vehicle, you should also and always have a spare of tyre, timing belt etc and be sure to know how to change these things. You don’t want to be disappointed by your car in a deserted place at night, which would look ugly.
• Do not over dress at night: when you over-dress and show off expensive shoes, clothes, neck chains and rings, you make yourself not just a soft target for robbery but also for kidnapping. Always dress moderately, leave your valuables like phones, tabs and laptops at home, go light.
• Do not over-drink if it’s going to be a night journey: we all know that parties are hottest at night but trust me, you are safer on the road at night when you have full concentration, attention and consciousness. You don’t just avoid unnecessary accidents; you will also handle dangerous situations better and get home to your loved ones in one piece. The unknown we should be afraid of in night journey is the assumption that the road is “free”. You are safer believing that no road is free.
• Have a security response code on a speed dial: Most people have lost so much faith in security agencies that they become less mindful of security response numbers of their location. The truth is, you are better off dialing those numbers than not trying at all. You never can tell what avenue God would use to save.
Generally, it is advised that you desist from being a night crawler, but if you must, take safety precautions, be wise and remember your loved ones.
