Tips for Being Safe While Driving
- Never pick up hitchhikers.
- Keep car doors locked at all times.
- While walking to your car, look under car.
- Before entering your car, look into the back seat and on the floor board.
- Always have your keys ready to unlock the car door and enter without delay.
- Never walk across the parking lot digging in your purse for your keys, have them in your hand before you leave the building.
- Make certain that you have enough gas to get where you are going and always keep your vehicle in good running condition.
- If possible, travel on well-lighted, busy streets and avoid isolated back roads and shortcuts.
- If you are being followed, drive to the nearest open business for help, or drive to the Police or Fire Station.
- Never leave your house keys with your car keys at a service station or parking lot.
- Women driving alone should never stop to aid a stranger in a stalled vehicle.
- If you have trouble, raise the hood, and stay in your vehicle.
- When someone offers assistance, roll the window down just enough to talk to them. Ask them to call a relative, friend, garage, or the police for you. Never get into a stranger's car.
