Then you probably shouldn't rush. Not only will you miss mandatory activities, you'll miss "unofficial" just hanging-out time. How do you get to school now if you live that far away (I'm assuming you mean 10+ miles) and don't have a car?

Agreed. Almost all activities are in the evenings at most schools because classes are during the day. You wouldn't be able to participate in much of anything.

Pepper spray is your friend, against both dangerous people and really dull food.
Chances are, you'll never need to use it.

No. It doesn't work that way.
Unless you have a GUARANTEE that you will have a way to get back and forth to required meetings and activities, and be prompt when you do, you are wasting your time and everyone else's time by rushing. Not to mention that being the girl constantly asking for rides will get hella old hella quick.

And yet you asked us, instead of your 'friend.'
Also they may not be rude, but apparently riding the bus at night = death.

We have cars here. We don't beg people for rides like street bums.
Either make peace with the bus, or ensure that you will be able to have a car at your disposal - but do it BEFORE you accept a bid. It's not anyone's responsibility but yours to get to sorority activities, and if you can't find a way to do that, DON'T RUSH.

Actually, I make the comment living in Berkeley, CA and often going to the bordering cities of Richmond and Oakland. Both places have crime rates that are higher than that in Miami in both property and violent crime. However, in the big picture, they're similar.
