個人の安全性
Most travellers to India have no safety trouble. The crime rate in India varies by location. Also, there is more safety risk associated with travelling alone. Be cautious and always be aware of your surroundings, especially at night. Petty crime, such as pickpocketing and bag snatching, is common in India. Avoid showing signs of affluence, such as expensive clothing, jewelry, or electronics. Ensure personal belongings, travel documents, and bankcards are secured at all times. Cases of drugging have been reported, therefore, do not accept food or drink from strangers, and never leave your drinks out of your sight. There have been reports from tourists of being drugged and robbed on overnight trains.
Women travelling in India should be cautious. Reports of sexual assault and rape against foreign women have increased. Women should be prepared for unwanted attention and harassment and should not travel alone, especially at night. Women can minimize safety risks in India by following some guidelines. Wear modest clothing. Clothing that is revealing, including t-shirts with straps, is considered underwear by people in India. Consider wearing a dupatta, a long scarf that can be used to cover the head and shoulders. Do not be overly friendly with men, including hotel staff. Do not confront men who stare, but rather look away.
Always avoid travelling alone on public transportation, in taxis, or auto-rickshaws, especially at night. If possible, use only taxis from hotel taxi stands. Avoid hailing taxis on the street. When arriving at airports, use the pre-paid taxi counters. If you are being met at the airport, ensure that the driver provides proper identification. If possible, arrange coach travel into Mumbai.
The incidence of road accidents is high in India. Road travel may be dangerous in some rural areas due to poor road conditions, debris, traffic congestion, poor vehicle maintenance, and drivers may not follow standard rules of driving.
