Women can feel safe w/ Pink Taxis

Pink Taxis in Puebla, Mexico

The government of the city of Puebla, Mexico have recently launched a women-only taxi service called Pink Taxi.

The vehicles are driven by women only, and are designed to make women feel safer and protected against sexual harassment and robberies. Each car include a beauty kit, GPS and a stolen vehicle recovery system. It is also an innovative idea to employ housewives, as it will generate 105 jobs in the city .

Hmm.. but are there smarter ways to equip and educate women on being safe?
