Interdimensional Traveler
You duck in an alley and wait for the car to pass.
Several minutes pass, and the car does not come past you. You wonder if it turned off somewhere. There were lots of side streets between there and here.
Then again, paranoid as it may sound, the driver may have seen you duck into the alley and is waiting for you. Seriously, what is a car doing on torn-up streets in a clearly abandoned and lost city? It is pretty suspicious. There could be looters waiting to see if you have valuables. You're sure you could navigate the dark alleys back to a street and get to the lit part of the city in a few hours time...
