Digital creator Snehaa (@explorewithsnehaa) often shares experimental videos on her social media handle. Her videos include dating experiences, checking for paranormal activity, and much more. In her latest video, she stepped out alone at night to test how safe Ahmedabad is for women.
For this safety experiment, she carried a bag and travelled in an auto-rickshaw. During the ride, she pretended to fall asleep. However, the auto driver woke her up when they reached her destination. This was one of the unexpected experiences she had during the experiment.
She then stood alone on a quiet road in the dark to see how people would react. According to her, no vehicle passing by stopped to trouble her. She felt happy about her experience and believed it showed how safe women could feel in the city.
Next, a man approached her. She initially felt scared, but his question surprised her. He simply asked if she needed any help. At the final location, she stood alone again, and several auto-rickshaw drivers approached her to ask if she needed a ride.
