Most often when I get off of exit 5 from I-91, there is someone panhandling. When your car is stopped at the light, the person is only a couple of feet from your car. During the day, it's fine and becoming pretty common at several exit ramps in the area. But coming home from work at midnight, it's a little intimidating to have someone standing right next to you. Is there a way to discourage this late night behavior?

There have been zero reported incidents of any of these poor folks harming anyone in their comfy cars.
We can't hide the poor just because they make the small percentage of privileged people in town uneasy.
Perhaps you might consider relocating to a town with less "scary poor people".

My intention was not to harass or attempt to hide the mentally ill, poor or addicted....I've spent many years caring for this population on a daily basis (mostly without fear, and with much less judgement than you are showing toward me)...but nobody likes to listen to some privileged person in a comfy car talk about all of the self-sacrificing things they have done for society's unfortunate. Though, something makes me think I have a much more intimate relationship with this population than you do, or probably ever will.
Anyone with a decent sense of self-preservation would find someone standing right next to their car asking for money in the middle of the night slightly uncomfortable. I'm pretty sure I'd feel that way if it were you standing there. Maybe even more so.
