I took a wrong turn in St. Louis one night after going to a baseball game or concert (I can't remember which) and ended up driving through East St. Louis, Illinois at night. Trepidation doesn't even begin to describe it. I was even nervous about finding an exit to turn around since that would mean getting off of the interstate and driving slow. I'll never forget seeing fires near buildings as I passed through. Shudder.
