I've lived in NYC for 30 years and ridden the subway thousands of times going back to the last peak in crime in the 90s. I've never witnessed a real crime or seen someone brandish a weapon. I know a few people who have been near or been victimized to a small degree. None had anything like PTSD.
I know several people who have died or suffered serious injuries in car crashes.
