Health & safety: Dangers & annoyances
http://www.lonelyplanet.com/italy/rome/practical-information/health
Rome is not a dangerous city but petty crime is rife.
Road safety is also an issue. The highway code is obeyed with discretion so don’t take it for granted that cars and scooters will stop at pedestrian crossings, or even at red lights. The only way to cross the road is to step confidently into the traffic and walk across, ideally in a group, best of all with a nun.
If I am in Rome with my wife I will get her to a nuns habit, so that we can confidently cross Rome's streets.

Alternatively, you could wear a nun's uniform. 8D
Thanks bro for suggesting I start cross dressing :-P
if you don't cross dress, you get crossed, but if you cross dress, your wife will get crossed... can't win either way.....
That would make a handsome couple, a priest and a nun. ... not sure if that is legal in Rome.
Well actually it is true that one feels much safer when you are in the prescence of a priest or a nun in Rome, as who dares to run over a servant of God least they get hit by thunder. ;-)
