Riding on the subway alone, especially at off hours, can be a nerve-wracking experience.

To help you stay out of harm’s way, Hunter College suggests:

• Keep purses and backpacks secure at all times.
• Do not display money or jewelry in public places.
• Never carry a wallet in your back pocket.
• Be suspicious of anyone approaching you.
• When traveling at off hours, ride in cars with a conductor.
• When waiting for a train late at night, stand in a safe spot.
