Asked by one of her fans why she has to skip the red Lights, Nomzamo replied that she is always living in constant fear especially when it's dark  or desert spot worrying about the smash and grab.

Because, I'm a woman. I'm CONSTANTLY living in fear. If it's a dark, deserted spot, I'm not stopping. I yield. https://t.co/nYeGYvoN7Z

If I'm driving at 9/10pm and it's through spots where smash and grab is rife? I YIELD at a red traffic light, look around and drive.
