"After we meet, let's go for a drive."
パパ活をしていると、男性からそんな提案をされることがあります。
In fact, just the use of euphemisms like "car f" and "car chute" for invitations generates over 1,000 searches per month for the PATOLO column. This shows that many women are feeling anxious about car dates without knowing the true meaning or risks involved.
- "Is it really just a drive?"
- "What if I get attacked?"
- "Is it okay if the allowance is the same as just meals?"

Hi, I'm Aya, and I'm 26 years old!
I have a bitter past experience of being stalked via social media. That incident made me extremely careful about anonymity and safety. Dating in a car is a situation that requires particular caution, so I will share my experiences as well.
This media outlet is operated by UNIVERSE GROUP and provides information to help women considering or engaging in "sugar dating" make safe and satisfying choices. The content is based on actual user reviews and our own research, and we prioritize an unbiased perspective that includes not only the benefits but also the risks and points to be aware of.

A summary of slang terms used in car-based sugar dating: Meanings and ways to decline car-based P, car-based F, car-based mini, and car-based date.
If you receive messages from your dad that include phrases like "in-car parking," "F available," or "How about a small one?", first check the meanings in this chart.
| word | meaning | How it is used | Types of ways to refuse |
| Parking inside the car | Having sexual relations in the enclosed space of a parked car. It is used with almost the same meaning as "car parking" (shachū). | It's often used disguised as an invitation to "have tea in the car" or "want to grab some tea in the car?" | The basic rule is to avoid enclosed spaces altogether. Decline by citing motion sickness or nervousness. |
| Inside the car F | A slang term referring to oral sex, such as fellatio. | It is often used alone, like "F included," and its meaning is relatively clear. | Because its meaning is clear, it's a phrase that makes it easy to firmly refuse, taking other conditions into account. |
| Car interior mini | A slang term often used to refer to short-duration sexual acts without penetration. | It's easy to approach it with a lighthearted tone, like "A small one is okay." | Confirm the extent of the agreement beforehand, and decline if there's a misunderstanding. |
| Car date | From simple drives to requests for intimate encounters in private rooms, this is a wide range of ways to seduce someone. | "Let's go for a drive sometime," or similar invitations, may seem harmless at first glance. | It's important not to agree too readily until you clearly understand the other party's intentions. |
Aya
To be honest, at first I also couldn't bring myself to ask "What does 'petit' mean?" and just went along with the conversation. If you proceed with ambiguity, it's easy to end up with "he said, she said" disputes later, so it's best to ask for clarification on the spot if you're unsure.
Let's take a closer look at why each of these slang terms is dangerous and how to refuse them.
Now that you understand the meaning of the slang, the best approach is to choose someone who won't make dangerous propositions in the first place.
*Only male members who pass the interview can register.
What's it like inside a sugar daddy's car? Two common patterns and the male psychology behind it.
There are two main reasons why a dad might invite you on a date in his car by saying, "Let's go for a drive sometime."
| Item | A pure driving date | A car date with ulterior motives |
|---|---|---|
| Main purpose | Enjoy conversation, night views, and outings. | - Saving on hotel costs Contact in a closed room |
| Characteristics of men | ・Wealthy class • Owns a luxury car - Married person (to prevent face recognition) | • Limited budget Young dad - For recreational purposes |
| Risk level | 中 (There is a non-zero possibility of trouble.) | high (Obscene acts, coercive demands) |
| Guidelines for judgment | If there is trust, it's OK. | Absolutely not allowed |
Even with the same car date, the risks can vary greatly depending on the purpose and the person you're with.
Let's take a closer look at each pattern.
Pattern 1: A pure drive date
This type of person simply wants to enjoy the act of driving itself. This group is often wealthy and owns luxury cars such as Ferraris, Porsches, and Mercedes-Benzes.
For them, their cars are a source of pride, and they harbor genuine desires such as "I want to drive around with a woman in the passenger seat" or "I want to go see the night view with her."
If you simply want to enjoy the drive, then it should be fine to accept if you have a certain level of trust with the person you're going with.
Aya
At first, I also thought, "It'll be fine if it's someone I can trust." But there's always a chance you could be taken to an unexpected place or not be dropped off right away, so you can't let your guard down!
Pattern 2: Alone together in a closed room
In some cases, the purpose is physical contact or sexual activity within the confined space of a car.
This type of person calculates from the start that they want to "save on hotel costs" and that "it will be difficult to refuse in a car," and makes the proposal with that in mind.
The following are some of the characteristic methods used:
- During a date, I suggested we take a short break and pulled into a deserted parking lot.
- "There's a place with a beautiful night view," he said, taking me to the mountains or somewhere similar.
- They forcefully press their body against you inside the car, or lock the doors to prevent you from getting out.
Men who engage in such behavior are what are known as "problematic daddies."They disregard your safety and feelings and only try to push through their own desires.
Aya
If you feel like this pattern applies to you, refuse no matter what conditions they offer. Even if they say, "We'll give you extra pay," once you're alone with them in a closed room, you'll be at a significant disadvantage.
Even if they say, "We'll give you extra pay," once you're alone with them in a closed room, you're at a significant disadvantage.
Reasons why men suggest the car
Men suggest car dates for various reasons, such as wanting to save on hotel costs or satisfying their need for dominance.
Understanding male psychology makes it easier to spot dangerous patterns.The first reason is that I want to save money on hotel expenses.
Aya
Even a short stay at a love hotel costs around 5,000 to 1 yen, and a city hotel would be even more expensive...
If you stay in the car, you can completely cut out the cost of this hotel.
A man who thinks "it's fine to do it in the car" is likely someone who doesn't want to spend money on you.
The second reason is that they want to satisfy their need for control.
Some men have a desire to control women, wanting to have their way with them in private.
In a sugar daddy relationship, the person providing the money takes advantage of their superior position and tries to satisfy their desires in the inescapable space of a car.
Aya
Those who want to satisfy their need for control may be particularly dangerous, as their desires could escalate...!
Just because the compensation amount is high doesn't mean you should accept the other person's demands; you should keep your distance from them.
What does "In-Car F" mean? Meaning and how to respond when it's proposed.
Have you ever received a message asking, "Is it possible to do F inside the car?" and felt confused?
"Car F" is slang for oral sex, such as fellatio, performed in the confined space of a car. It is characterized by having a relatively clearer meaning compared to terms like "petite" or "light."
Situations and expressions in which "F" is used
These are words that often appear in messages as standalone symbols, such as "F available" or "F possible."
It might be used casually in a profile description, or it might only be brought up after the initial meeting.
Because the meaning is so clear, it's best to assume that the other person is trying to gauge your reaction with this single phrase.
The dangers and ways to decline when offered a car-based F (presumably a sexual act).
While the meaning of "car sex" is clear, the fact that it takes place in a confined space makes it inherently dangerous, just like any other car date. It carries the risks of being secretly filmed, having personal information leaked, and financial troubles.
Aya
The fact that the invitation was clearly stated with the word "F" makes it easier to clearly decline, which is a relief. I try to simply say, "I'm not interested in that kind of relationship."
Specific examples of how to politely decline are included in our article on how to politely decline a car date. Please refer to it as well.
What is "carside mini-event"? Why is there a common misunderstanding between its meaning and how it's perceived?
Among slang terms, "car interior little thing" is particularly likely to lead to trouble.
"Car-inside quickie" is a slang term that often refers to a short sexual act without penetration. Because there is no clear definition of the word "quickie," the range of what it means varies greatly from person to person.
The importance of aligning on the understanding of "how far" to go beforehand.
The scary thing about this phrase is that it easily creates a disconnect in perception between women who think "it's small so it must be light" and men who expect "it should be okay up to this point even if it's small."
By directly asking "What exactly do you mean by 'mini'?" before meeting, you can prevent misunderstandings about what was said or not said on the day of the meeting.
If someone only gives you vague answers, consider that a warning sign.
The dangers of being offered a small in-car encounter and how to decline.
If you are lured in by the casual phrase "it's just a little," you will face the dangerous risks I've described.
Aya
I too have been tempted to let my guard down, thinking "it's just a little," but it's still a confined space. I try not to be swayed by the lightness of the word "little," and instead calmly decide whether or not to enter the car.
If you're unsure how to decline, please refer to these example sentences.
6 reasons why car dates during sugar daddy relationships are considered dangerous
Car dates in the context of "sugar dating" (papakatsu) carry risks far greater than those of regular dates. There are six main reasons why car dates in sugar dating are considered dangerous.
If you're a sugar baby considering a car date with a sugar daddy with whom you've built a trusting relationship, please carefully consider the risks involved.
車内はあくまで危険が集中しやすい場面のひとつです。パパ活全体で起こる危険の一覧で、他にどこに注意が要るかを確認できます。
Risks of sexual assault and rape in a closed room
One of the most dangerous aspects of a date in a car is being in a confined space with just the two of you.
In cafes and restaurants, there are staff and other customers around, so you can ask for help if something happens.
However, you and the man are the only ones inside the car, and once the doors are locked, it's not easy to get out.
Aya
In this situation, if you were subjected to unwanted sexual demands, would you be able to firmly refuse...?
In the inescapable space of a car, where there is no escape route and no one can call for help from those around, it is not uncommon for people to become victims of sexual assault or rape.
Let's be aware that this is a place where such worst-case scenarios could occur.
The fear of being taken to a different place than promised, deep in the mountains.
In a car date, the other person has complete control over the destination.
I got into the car after being told, "I'll take you to a fancy restaurant," but before I knew it, we were driving along an unfamiliar mountain road.
There's a possibility you could be taken to a place you didn't intend to go to.
Aya
If you're taken to a remote, uninhabited mountain area, there might be no houses or shops nearby, making it impossible to call for help.
This could not simply be a frightening experience, but could escalate into kidnapping, sexual assault, or even serious crimes that threaten one's life.
Concerns about surreptitious filming and revenge porn using in-car cameras and smartphones.
Modern cars come standard with dashcams (onboard cameras) to record accidents.
If a camera is installed facing the inside of the car, your actions and conversations can be recorded at all times.
Furthermore, there is a risk of being secretly filmed or recorded without your knowledge, as smartphones or other devices can be cleverly placed.
If a relationship deteriorates for any reason, secretly filmed footage could be leaked online and used as material for revenge porn.
Aya
Once a video is leaked onto the internet, it's virtually impossible to completely remove it...
Even if you delete it, there is a risk that it will be spread again if it has already been copied or saved as a screenshot.
Personal information leaked (transportation information, home/nearest location, license plate number, location information)
While pick-up and drop-off services may seem helpful at first glance, there's a risk that personal information such as your home address and nearest train station may be revealed.
If your home address or nearest train station becomes known, there is a risk of stalking if the relationship sours.
Aya
What's even more important to be aware of is the possibility of personal information being leaked from cars through unintended means!
Car navigation systems and dashcams record a history of places you've visited in the past.
If the other person's family or colleagues use the car, there's a non-zero risk that the "sugar daddy" arrangement could be discovered through those records.
Once your personal information is exposed, it's irreversible, and if it escalates to stalking, your daily life will be threatened.
Even if the offer of a ride is well-intentioned, you should decline it.
Financial troubles (breach of promise/additional demands/protracted negotiations on the day)
Financial troubles are very common in sugar dating, and negotiations taking place in the confined space of a car put the woman at a significant disadvantage.
In more serious cases, the perpetrators may fail to pay the agreed-upon fee after the act, or they may try to negotiate a reduced amount, asking, "Is ◯ yen okay?"
Furthermore, in the case of men, if a woman performs sexual acts on them, some may feel the urge to do more.
It's not uncommon for people to accept additional demands beyond the original conditions because they find it difficult to refuse in a closed room.
Aya
When a request differs from what was agreed upon beforehand, disagreements over the amount of compensation often arise, leading to protracted and complicated disputes.
Accidents, drunk driving, and other troubles (unable to return home / liability issues)
Dating in a car carries risks such as getting into a traffic accident or being involved in an incident caused by your date's drunk driving.Accidents caused by speeding or dangerous driving can be life-threatening.
Aya
In the event of an accident or drunk driving, you, as a passenger, could certainly be held responsible.
Also, be aware that some malicious tactics involve lying, such as claiming the car has broken down or run out of gas, to create a situation where you cannot return home and then lure you to a hotel.
Before even considering the amount of compensation, accidents and drunk driving can be life-threatening and could lead to legal consequences.
[True Story] Heaven or Hell? A Sugar Baby's Car Date Experience
While there are risks involved in car dates as part of a sugar daddy arrangement, not all of them end badly.
Here are four real-life stories from women who have experienced car dates through "sugar dating." Hearing from women who have faced similar challenges should give you some clues to help you decide what to do next.
Success Story: Impressed by the "smart pick-up and drop-off" on a day of heavy rain! Gentlemanly consideration.
The private space inside a car allows you to truly discern a person's gentlemanly character.
A man who is considerate and thoughtful is likely to be a good father who will cherish you.
Success Story: A special suburban reward date with a trustworthy regular sugar daddy.
If you have built a trusting relationship over a long period of time, a date in a car can become a special experience that you wouldn't normally get.
It's important not to rush things and to first go on several dinner dates to get to know the other person properly.
Failure Story: A sudden transformation in a locked room...the horror of having the door locked and being continuously touched on the thigh.
His gentlemanly demeanor might just be an act to get a physical relationship.
Remember that you can't know a person's true nature after only meeting them a few times, and absolutely avoid getting into a car, which is a confined space, without careful consideration.
Failure story: I got paid, but... I was cornered with the words, "Next time, it'll be a hotel."
The phrase "We won't do anything this time" can sometimes be used to mean "It'll be OK next time."
It's important to have the courage to clearly refuse things you don't want to do on the spot, without being swayed by high pay or taking an ambiguous stance.
Aya
After reading the experiences of the four women, I felt that the common thread was that "assessing the level of trust" is the key to everything. Next, we'll look at the going rates for car and drive dates.
For those who have read this far and are thinking, "Dating in a car sounds scary, but I want to meet a decent daddy,"
*There's a sense of security that you can't get from just looking at a profile.
Car/driving allowance going rate
This article explains the typical compensation for car-based and driving dates, broken down by different scenarios.
If you negotiate without knowing the going rate, you might end up agreeing to a low price offered by the other party, which ultimately means you're selling yourself short.
Make sure you understand the market price beforehand so you can negotiate on equal footing.
| Date content | Acitivity Time | Allowance rates (guideline) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dinner + Drive | 2 to 3 hours | 10,000yen〜15,000yen | Travel time is also included in the time spent at work. |
| Half-day trip date | 4 to 6 hours | 20,000yen〜30,000yen | Outlets and tourist destinations |
| Inside the vehicle only (short duration) | 1 hours | 5,000-10,000 yen | Not recommended due to high risk. |
| Adults (acts) | Fluctuation | Equivalent to or higher than hotel rates | It should be refused due to hygiene and risk concerns. |
If you would like to know more about our approach to compensation,What is compensation?Please also see the article that explains this further.
We will explain each type of date in detail.
For driving tours (with meals, with meals, with sightseeing)
One thing to be careful of on a driving date is haggling over the price.
If your dad says, "It's cheap and good because you're just sitting there," counter by saying, "There are risks that don't exist on a dinner date."
The main risks of dating in a car are as follows:
- It becomes a private room with just the two of them.
- They take control of the destination.
- There is a possibility that personal information may be leaked.
Considering these factors, let's negotiate by adding a risk fee. Furthermore, travel time is also a significant part of the time you are obligated to work.
Aya
For example, if sightseeing is included, and the stay at the destination is 1 hour, and the travel time to and from the destination is 2 hours, then the total time spent there, including travel time, is 3 hours.
It would be reasonable to calculate the compensation based on this total of three hours.
For a drive date, whether it includes a meal, sightseeing, or no meal, negotiate the compensation to include a risk fee.
Dangerous prices when adults (sexual relationships) are involved
Dads who seek intimate encounters in their cars are actually benefiting from saving on hotel costs.
Negotiate a minimum price that includes the cost of the hotel.
A typical date with an adult involves hotel costs, and even a short stay at a love hotel costs around 5,000 to 1 yen, while a city hotel is even more expensive.
If someone suggests engaging in sexual activity in the car, it's highly likely they don't want to spend money on you.
Aya
In the first place, having adults inside a vehicle is not recommended due to hygiene issues, the risk of surreptitious filming, and safety concerns.
You should refuse any offers from dads like this who are trying to haggle you down.
Even if you reluctantly agree, you should set the minimum price to include the cost of the hotel, and absolutely do not undervalue yourself.
Rules for covering gasoline, highway tolls, and parking fees
Dad is responsible for all expenses, including gasoline, highway tolls, and parking fees.
"Could you pay a little for the gas?" "Shall we split the parking fee?"
If your dad ever said something like that to you, he's definitely a red flag and you should go home immediately.
They may have problems with their financial sense, or they may not see you as an equal partner.
If such remarks are made, you should consider ending the date and going home.
Aya
You might want to decide that this is someone you should cut ties with sooner rather than later!
[Examples Included] How to politely decline a car date without causing offense!
Many women find themselves in a dilemma when their boyfriend suggests a date in his car; they want to refuse, but they also don't want to ruin their relationship with him.
Saying "No" directly would likely cause offense. The same basic principle applies when you're offered "In-Car F" or "In-Car Mini." Please refer to the following examples.
You can copy and paste it and use it as is, so please feel free to use it.
The most common excuse is "sickness in the car."
Using your physical constitution as an excuse is a way to politely decline without causing offense.
Since motion sickness is something only the person experiencing it can truly understand, the other party cannot strongly refute it.
The following are example sentences using motion sickness as a reason.
I don't want to cause any trouble for [Name] on our date, so I'd like to talk at the restaurant.
Show consideration for the other person by expressing that you don't want to inconvenience them, which will lessen their resistance. Finally, offer an alternative solution.
I want to enjoy my date with [Name] to the fullest, so how about we meet at a cafe?
Including specific anecdotes, such as "the taxi the other day," makes the story sound less like a lie and more convincing.
But I get drunk really easily...
I'm sorry I couldn't go, especially since you went to the trouble of inviting me. Would it be alright if I found a place where we could talk at length instead?
By praising and initially affirming the suggestion, and then declining it, you show consideration for the other person's feelings.
Aya
In all of these examples, it's nice that the speaker expresses gratitude or apologies for the suggestion of a date in the car.
Furthermore, since you've rejected the other party's proposal and then offered an alternative, they're more likely to accept it, saying something like, "Okay, then."
"I'm still nervous," she said, suggesting an open space.
When dealing with someone with whom you don't yet have a strong relationship, you can politely decline by saying "not yet," emphasizing that it's not feasible at this stage.
Instead of outright saying "no," you can postpone it and maintain the relationship as before.
The following are example sentences using the word "procrastination."
I'd like to go for a drive once we've become closer friends! How about we start by chatting a lot at a cafe?
Instead of directly refusing, I positively postpone it by saying, "Maybe after we become friends."
I'd like to get to know [Name] better, so how about we start with a cafe with outdoor seating?
They use their own personality as an excuse, avoiding negativity towards the other person, and present it as "a problem on their end."
I think it would be better to get to know you better first ♡
By giving a specific estimate like "a few more times," you convey that you are being sincere.
Aya
What's great about all the example sentences is that they don't directly reject the idea of a date in the car!
Since there's still a possibility of a date in the car, the other person might get their hopes up and invite you out multiple times.
If you can't build a trusting relationship with the other person and don't feel like going on a date in their car, you should politely decline.
I'll decline the pick-up/drop-off service (we'll meet and disperse at the destination).
Offers like "I'll pick you up while I'm out" or "I'll drop you off nearby" may seem kind, but they carry the risk of revealing your address or nearest train station.
Learn how to politely decline a ride without hurting the other person's pride.
The following are examples of phrases used to decline a pick-up/drop-off offer.
I'm looking forward to meeting you there!
By emphasizing consideration for the other person, such as saying "I'm sorry," you can soften the impression of refusing.
I'm looking forward to seeing you today!
If you use your own schedule as a reason, the other person will be more likely to understand.
I want to respect your time, so I'll take the train home! I had a great time today!
While showing consideration for the other person, I avoided offering to drive them without causing any offense.
An offer of transportation is a way for a man to show concern for you and his desire to treat you with care.
Understand the context, show respect to the other person, and ensure your own safety.
Final warning/blocking criteria for persistent opponents.
Even if you decline in the ways I've described, there are some people who will persistently insist, saying things like, "It's okay!" or "Just a little bit is fine."
Such a person is likely to be a dangerous individual who will disregard your feelings and try to force their own demands on you.
After issuing a final warning, I recommend blocking them.
If you're unsure which block to use, please refer to the information below.
- They pry into the reasons why I refused.
- They keep asking me out even after I've refused them more than twice.
- They try to instill guilt by saying, "You don't trust me, do you?"
Those who say things that make you feel guilty are likely trying to take advantage of your kindness.
Aya
There's absolutely no need to think, "Am I in the wrong?" or "Am I being too harsh?"
Even so, when they ask me out, I get sad because I wonder if they're not thinking about me.
If you continue saying this, it will be difficult for me to meet with you.
While conveying the emotion of "sadness," the message clearly draws a line at the end by stating "we can't meet." The key is to avoid leaving any ambiguity.
If you send a message like this, you can block them without waiting for a reply. Prioritize your own safety.
Five safety measures to "protect your life" when you absolutely must drive.
Even though you know that car dates in sugar dating situations carry a lot of risk, there may still be times when you find yourself unable to refuse and end up getting into a car with someone.
Here, we'll explain five safety measures to protect your life in case of an emergency while you're in a car.
I will absolutely not ride with someone until we have met and established a relationship of trust.
Going on a car date with someone you've just met or are meeting for the first time carries a high risk because you don't know anything about the other person's background, so it should be avoided.
On the other hand, if you have a trusting relationship with your partner, there's also the advantage of being able to enjoy it as a purely romantic drive date.
However, trust is difficult to see, and we tend to judge it based on vague feelings.
Aya
Make sure you clearly define your own criteria (rules) for determining whether a relationship is trustworthy beforehand!
| [Rule 1: Limit on the number of times] | I won't get in until I've successfully gone on at least three dates that consisted solely of meals. |
| [Rule 2: Identity Verification] | I can find out the other person's real name, workplace, and contact information from their business card, and I can also verify their driver's license. |
| [Rule 3: Money Management] | Each time, they pay me the agreed-upon amount in advance. |
| [Rule 4: Consideration] | They listen to my suggestions and accept sudden illnesses without blaming me. |
The above is just one example.
In addition to these, set rules for anything you absolutely do not want done to you.
In the following cases, it cannot be said that there is a relationship of trust.
- They won't tell me the destination or the name of the shop.
- I only know their nickname within the app.
- The self-proclaimed title of "business owner" lacks any real basis.
- When I asked to see their ID, they dodged the question.
Even if you meet the rules regarding the number of times you can go on a date, it's probably best to avoid going on a date in your car.
We'll set our destination and return time via LINE and share our location information.
Before getting in the car, be sure to send the other person your destination and estimated return time via LINE.
This is an act of obtaining a commitment.
By creating a written record, you can put pressure on the other party to be punctual.
The following is a LINE template for recording evidence. Please copy and paste it and use it as is.
Ready to use! LINE messages that leave evidence
I have a curfew, so I need to be back at XX station by XX time. Thank you for your understanding.
Will I be able to get back in time? >_<
I promised to contact you around [time], so I'd appreciate it if you could just keep to the agreed time♪
To ensure that no one knows your location in the event of an emergency, please consider using tools to help you find your whereabouts.
Share your real-time location with trusted friends and family.
You can send your destination and estimated return time, and then pin the message to always be displayed at the top of the screen.
Types of countermeasures | Objective | Apps used | Simple steps |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixing important information | The destination and estimated return time will be displayed at the top of the chat screen so that they can be checked at any time. | LINE | 1. Press and hold the message you sent. 2. Select "Announcement" |
| real time 位置情報共有 | During a date, always share your location and make sure you can call for help in case of an emergency. | LINE | 1. Tap the "+" on the chat screen. 2. Select "Location" → "Share Location". |
| Real-time location sharing | Ibid. | Google Maps | 1. Tap your icon. 2. Select "Share my current location" 3. Set a time and date with the person you will be sharing with. |
Sharing your location is fine using either LINE or Google Maps.
Aya
Remember to set it before your date and turn it off when you get home.
During your date, ensure your location is constantly being tracked so you can call for help if something happens.
Check the rear seat, not the passenger seat, to confirm the door locks are released.
When riding in a car, sitting in the back seat can increase physical safety.
Prior preparation and small checks will help protect you.
| Check item | Reason (Why it's important) | Practical Techniques & Points to Note |
|---|---|---|
| Seat confirmation | Because it is the furthest away from the driver and therefore difficult to reach in an emergency. | The basic rule is to sit on the driver's side of the back seat. This is the safest position. |
| Securing the rear seats | To sit safely in the back seat in a natural, amicable way, without causing any awkwardness. | "I'll be treated like the CEO and get to sit in the back (laughs)." "I get drunk easily, so would it be alright if I sat in the back?" Try to convey it naturally, like this. |
| Check the door locks | If the child lock is activated, the door cannot be opened from the inside, posing a risk of being locked inside the vehicle. | After boarding, I discreetly checked. Make it a habit to lightly touch the door handle as soon as you get in the car to see if it opens. If the doors don't open, it's important to have an excuse to get off immediately. |
These actions also have the effect of giving the other person the impression that you are a woman who can manage risks and is not easily distracted.
Aya
Please remember this as an important habit for protecting yourself.
Choosing routes and resting places to avoid being alone with someone in an enclosed space
To avoid being taken to deserted places during a drive, learn how to take control of rest stops and routes.
Please refer to the following for guidance on choosing a resting place.
| OK | NG |
|---|---|
| Service areas (SAs) on expressways | Parking lot at the back of the park |
| Arao | Mountain path |
| Convenience store parking lot | Port warehouse district |
Aya
As a general rule, always choose locations where there are other cars and people around!
If you find yourself heading onto a deserted road or mountain path that's different from your plan, make a big fuss, even if it's just an act, by claiming you're carsick or need to use the restroom.
The purpose is to forcibly direct the car towards a location where people are present.
If they try to brush you off with something like, "We're almost there, can't you wait?", you should firmly insist, "I really can't wait, stop right now!"
Carry a personal alarm and be prepared to report any incidents immediately.
If you have personal safety devices such as a personal alarm, keep them in your hand, not in your bag.
If you put it at the very bottom of your bag, you won't be able to get it out when you need it.
Keep it in your hand at all times while you're in the car.
Recommended items include the following:
- Physical security alarm (with false alarm prevention switch)
- Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department-approved crime prevention app "Digi Police" (Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department防犯アプリデジポリス")
If you install the app, you can activate a feature that makes a loud sound and flashes a light simply by tapping your smartphone screen.
As a precaution, always keep your smartphone in your hand while in the car.

Even if it's obvious that it's a security device, a smartphone looks more natural to the other person, doesn't it?
Both iPhones and Android devices have a feature that allows you to make emergency calls from the lock screen.
- iPhone: Press and hold the side button and volume button simultaneously → Slide Emergency SOS
- Android: Press the emergency call button at the bottom of the lock screen → Press a number such as 110.
When you need it most, fumbling to unlock it can be fatal.
Practice using your own smartphone beforehand.
Emergency response in case of trouble
No matter how careful you are, the possibility of getting into trouble can never be completely eliminated.
If you feel your safety is at risk while engaging in "sugar dating," your safety should be your top priority.
Here, we will explain how to respond in the event of an emergency in three steps.
First, leave the area.
If you feel your life is in danger, leave the area immediately, without thinking of any reasons or excuses.
This is not the time to be worrying about offending the other person; your safety is the top priority.
For specific excuses to leave the situation, please refer to the following.
- Pretend to go to the toilet
- Pretend to go to the convenience store
- Pretend to receive a phone call
Also, when you leave the area, don't try to grab your belongings and miss your chance to escape.
If you have a smartphone, you can call for help, and if you shout loudly, someone will notice you.

Do not try to take your belongings by force; first ensure your own safety.
Consult the police or someone you trust.
Once you leave the situation, don't try to handle everything on your own; be sure to ask someone for help.
The following are specific contact points for consultation.
| Contact | Contact method | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| Policemen | 110 | In an emergency, do not hesitate to report it. |
| Sexual crime victim consultation phone line | #8103 | Contact point for reporting sexual offenses to the police |
| One-Stop Support Center | #8891 | Comprehensive support center for victims of sexual crimes and sexual violence |
| Trustworthy friends and family | Phone/LINE | First, let's have someone listen to what you have to say. |
Many women who have been victimized hesitate to seek help because they think, "It's hard to talk about because it's related to sugar dating," or "Maybe I was partly to blame."
Even in the context of "sugar dating," sexual acts or violence without consent are crimes.
Aya
This not only means bearing the pain alone, but it also leads to leaving the perpetrator at large.
To protect yourself and prevent further victims, please don't try to handle this alone; reach out to the police or a specialized counseling service.
3. Save evidence such as messages and dates.
Whether or not you have evidence after a problem occurs will greatly affect how the police or lawyers respond when you consult them.
Keeping records will be a valuable tool for protecting yourself later on, so use the following list as a guide and make it a habit to keep records.
| Types of evidence | What to keep specifically | Storage methods and tips |
|---|---|---|
| Message history | - Meeting arrangements (date, time, place) Negotiating the amount of the allowance - Persistent invitations or unpleasant content | Take screenshots of app or LINE conversations. |
| Opponent's information | - Entire profile screen | Save a screenshot before the other person leaves the site. |
| Activity log | - The exact date and time we met • Names of shops or places visited - The other person's clothing, the characteristics of their car, etc. | Use your smartphone's memo function or similar to record objective facts. |
| Audio data | Conversation with the other person | (If you recorded it) save the audio file. |
These records are difficult to gather after something has happened.
If you feel even the slightest bit that something is "off," make it a habit to record it each time; this will serve as insurance to protect yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
This section answers frequently asked questions about car dates in the context of "sugar daddy" relationships.
Please make sure to resolve any anxieties or questions before starting any activities.
What if you're told "I'll pick you up in my car" at your first meeting?
If someone suggests a car date during your first meeting, you should politely decline.
Getting into a car with someone you've just met carries risks such as being in a confined space, having no control over the destination, and being unable to escape.
Meeting and dispersing at the destination is the rule.
Politely decline, and instead suggest a date in a public place, such as a cafe or lunch date.
How to handle being asked "Shall we go to a hotel?" during a drive date
If you're not interested, it's important to clearly refuse on the spot.
You can avoid it by saying, "I'm not in the mood today," or "I'm on my period."
Giving vague answers is a no-no because it raises false hopes.
If they are being too persistent, clearly tell them, "I want to go home."
Is it possible for a sugar daddy date in a car to develop into a mistress arrangement?
It's not impossible, but it's best not to get your hopes up too high.
The reason Dad suggested staying in the car is because he wants to save money on hotel costs and keep expenses down.
Cases that develop into mistress contracts require the establishment of a long-term relationship of trust.
If someone wants to build that kind of relationship with you, they should be willing to spend money on you.
Summary: When it comes to car dates in sugar dating, "choosing the right partner" and "building trust" are everything.
Car dates in the context of "sugar daddy" relationships only work if you have the ability to assess your partner and have built a relationship of trust over time.
First, if your dad suggests a date in his car, try to figure out whether he genuinely wants to enjoy a drive or has ulterior motives.
Even if you're going on a car date with a trustworthy dad, car dates still carry various risks.
Understand the risks, take safety precautions beforehand, and carry out your activities while protecting yourself.
