launching her own \u201cUber for pedestrians\u201d mobile app that seeks to boost street safety in numbers.\n\nUpper East Side resident Pamela Garber said her invention, Never Walk Alone NYC, will pair up users with other pedestrians in a \u201cbuddy system,\u201d similar to rideshare services like Uber or Lyft, so they can commute without fear.\n\n\u201cWalking is a testament to our freedom,\u201d she told The Post, \u201c[but] I\u2019m walking past people shooting up, I\u2019m walking past someone who looks hostile, and I\u2019m calling my then-fianc\u00e9 saying, \u2018stay on

Just a moment before, I was crossing Third Avenue and a group of visibly agitated men crossing behind me were talking with increased volume.\nLas Vegas odds, these were not guys angry about something that had just happened at the workplace or at the home of a dear friend.
