The results are similar to those of child kidnappings. The odds some stranger will scoop your kid off the street are incredibly small (less then a dozen kidnappings like this a year), but we spend a great deal of time educating kids on "stranger danger." The odds greatly favor someone you know kidnapping or molesting your kid.

Seems like most women I know are more afraid to walk home at night then they are to get loaded on a first date with a guy they hardly know. Just making people aware of the odds might do a lot to lower the numbers.
