By Evan Eley–
It is no shock that a delivery driver is a high-value target for robbery. Drivers are by themselves, ringing doorbells of complete strangers and potentially carrying cash on them while delivering. With crime being a common theme surrounding the University of Louisville, many drivers are having to take extra precautions while on the job.
Many U of L students have jobs throughout the city. One common job for college students with a vehicle is to be a delivery driver for restaurants and food service companies, such as Tapingo.
