| Comment | You’ll be fine in Giffnock.
You have the option of the train back to Giffnock or the 38 bus.
Normal big city advice applies. Don’t be wondering down any dark alleyways. If you stick to the main roads walking to the station you’ll be fine.
There are some dregs of society that hang around the town at night. The chances of being a random passerby and getting caught up in trouble are very slim.
If anybody asks you for money and it makes you uncomfortable just tell them politely you don’t carry cash and keep moving.
For every scumbag in Glasgow there is another 1000 people with good hearts who will be willing to lend a hand.
Should you ever feel in danger, grab a hold of a bus driver, a black taxi driver or pub/club doorman.
Despite the reputation those industries have from the from disgruntled patrons of Glasgow Reddit, all of those organisations work very closely with the police. All staff are trained to look out for and help vulnerable people. The doormen have a direct link to the police control room for example. |
