Driving Alone Or At Night
Try to avoid driving alone or at night.
Be sure to locate your keys prior to going to your car.
If you must shop at night, park in a well-lighted area.
Avoid parking next to cars with tinted windows, vans or trucks with camper shells.
Park as close as you can to your destination and remember where you parked.
Never leave your motor running with children inside or unoccupied.
Do not leave valuables on the seat of your car. This creates a temptation for thieves. Lock your packages in the trunk or put them out of sight.
Hold on tight to your purse, handbag and parcels. Do not put them down or on top of the car when you open the door.
Always have a self defense device in your hand or easy to access. Buy pepper spray, a self defense stun gun and/or a personal alarm and keep one near by at all times.
Avoid Robbery
Avoid carrying valuable items or large amounts of money.
Always think ahead. When out at night, have your keys ready to enter the house or to start the car.
Ask someone to walk you (or even watch you) to your car.
If you are confronted by a robber, and all they want is money, the best advice is to cooperate.
If you resist, there is a greater chance that you may be hurt.
Always carry your self defense products such as pepper spray key chain, a cell phone stun gun in your purse, or a personal alarm. Don’t be afraid to use them, they are safe to use and could save your life.
Prevent Rape
If you are in immediate danger of being raped, use your personal security device. A personal alarm, pepper spray, or a stun gun could save you a lot of pain if not your life. In the event you are caught without any self defense device, here is some advice.
Make a loud noise - If you don’t have a personal alarm or whistle, SCREAM!
Run - Only run if there is somewhere safe to run to.
Stall - Speak calmly and rationally. Try not to plead, cry or show that you’re scared, this may be the reaction that he’s going for.
Urinate or vomit - Do anything you can to repulse the assailant. Tell him that you have a STD or AIDS.
Fight - Women who resist attacks and act quickly are less likely to be raped, than those who are passive.
Keep alert - Try to pay attention to as many details as possible, so that you can identify your rapist.
Get help - Call 9-1-1 as soon as possible.
Collect evidence - Do not bathe, shower, or douche. If you change clothes, put the clothes you were raped in into a bag and seal it.
Tell someone - Don’t keep it a secret. Call the police, rape crisis line, or a friend.
If you don’t have self defense devices in multiple convenient locations. Act today! Even the most powerful stun gun is very affordable. You can also buy pepper spray and personal alarms and have them handy to keep the odds in your favor.
Secret Vacation
When going on vacation, keep it a secret from theives. Don’t announce your absence on answering machine messages. Leave your shades, blinds and curtains in a normal position. Don’t close them unless that is what you do when you are home. Close and lock garage doors and all windows. If you leave your car at home, park it as you normally would. Vehicles parked outside should be moved occasionally to appear that they are being used. Ask a neighbor to occasionally park in your driveway. Your neighbor can also collect mail and news papers for you so they aren’t collecting in the yard.
Don’t forget to take your personal security devices with you on your trip. Personal alarms, cell phone stun guns and self defense pepper spray are all compact, easy to use and affordable.
Prevent Sexual Assalt
#1 rule: Always lock your vehicle doors.
Keep your car doors locked when it is parked to keep a sexual predator from hiding and waiting inside.
As soon as you are inside the car, lock the doors for safety.
Look around and inside your car before you get in.
Be aware of other people in parking areas, especially those close to your vehicle or in a nearby parked car.
If you think you are being followed, drive to a police station or a public place to get help.
If your car breaks down, call for help on your cell phone and stay inside your locked vehicle.
If you don’t have a cell phone then open the hood or attach a white cloth to the antenna. If someone stops to help, stay inside your locked vehicle and ask them to call the police. The person pretending to help may be a sexual predator.
Always have a personal security device in your car. Self defense pepper spray, a stun gun, or even a personal alarm fits easily in your glove box so it is always there for you in an emergency. You can buy one of the most powerful stun guns in the shape of a cell phone. Cell phone stun guns can be carried with you anywhere and no one will notice.
To Take Or Not To Take?
It is suggested you learn to minimize the amount of possessions you carry with you. For instance, if you don’t need a camera with you, don’t take it. The same goes for cash and credit cards. Only take what cash you need and don’t take all your credit cards with you, just the ones you are likely to use. And of course for your personal safety and the safety of your possessions, carry your personal security devise at all times. You can buy pepper spray, a personal alarm or even a cell phone stun gun and keep it with you where ever you go.
