Many were the times that Chen walked straight into a hanging sign, public telephone attached to a wall, or lowered truck bed of some vehicle parked by the roadside. She thus felt very insecure, leaving her to choose between taking long detours around high-risk routes or accepting cuts and bruises to the head and upper body.
好幾次，她就硬生生撞上了告示牌、公共電話、突出的花台、停放路邊的卡貨車櫃，甚至還被違規右轉的汽車嚇壞，這使得她對腰部以上的障礙物非常沒有安全感，不是遠遠繞過危險路段而行，就是得忍受額頭瘀青、擦傷。
