size of the group & person concern does not make the odds better- being safe. in a foreign land. how well does everyone in that group know each other, this determines/guages how a member will react under duress. in a loose group, my guess is that each individual reacting differently puts the whole group at risk. the grouping of lux cars travelling in convoy did run into trouble along the way not too long ago, safety in numbers? :think:
then bringing the topic of familiarity to the location itself, JB isn't small, which part of JB is it? how un/safe a place can be depends on luck (or element of chance/probability). being somewhere at the wrong time, wrong place makes a world of difference. even in Sg, oso got daylight robbery.
to Redstone, wad safety measures have you taken? don't forget Murphy's Law.
