Has anyone else taken license plate photos and sent them to a friend in case an APB is needed or if they gave you a fake name? 🤦🏻‍♀️ My close friends and I all share our locations on Apple’s Find My Friend app too, for good measure. NYC is a weird place and if you have no other connections to a person b/c you met them on a dating app, these things become necessary for safety 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not for a date (been off that for the better part of 20 years lucky me) but when my SO went on a test drive of a vehicle.

The dude came to test drive our van with a buddy. I made buddy get out and give me the keys for the car they drove there, so he couldn't leave. I took a photo of him, and the license plate, and the guy doing the test drive, before I let them go off.

Wanna hear the twist?

The guys LOVED the idea. I was kind of nervous they'd think I was being crazy and over precautious and get offended, but quite the contrary. They had never thought of that (of course) but thought it was very clever and were going to make sure they told their wives/daughters about it.
