Hawdgirl Posted October 27, 2005 Personal Safety Tips are : - Don't carry a purse or else you should put valuables in your pockets instead of in a purse. -Always be prepared and know what is around you. - Do not leave anything of value visible in your car including book bags, CDs, gym bags, sunglasses. If thieves think it is valuable they will risk breaking your car's window and grabbing it. - Have your keys ready in your hand before you leave a building. - Never leave your car running. There is a new law that allows police to ticket running/unlocked cars as there were many thefts of cars that were left running. - More crimes happen in alleys as there are fewer people around and watching. - Move to a place where there are others if you are suspicious of someone. - Do not hesitate to call 911. If you are not sure call it anyway because it is the dispatcher’s job to direct you to the right place. - Call 911 if you see a suspicious person, hear breaking glass, or have been a victim of a crime. You can ask to remain anonymous. - 911 keeps track of the crimes and can then give accurate reports to the police officers about what and where to watch out for crimes. source from a crime prevention specialist. :eek: :eek: :eek: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
