While major roads are generally safe, it's advisable to use ride-hailing services or private transport if traveling late at night, especially after 9 PM. Commercial buses might be less frequent, and some areas along the route can be dimly lit or less secure after dark. Prioritize well-lit and busy public areas if using commercial buses at night.
