Personal Safety in your Car

1. When driving your car, keep your doors locked and windows rolled up.

2. If you stop in traffic or at a light, keep your car in drive and stay alert.

3. Never pick up hitchhikers.

4. Travel on well-lighted, busy streets. Avoid unsafe areas.

5. Check your daily routes -- look for safe places to stop, such as police or fire stations, all-night convenience stores or gas stations.

6. If you are being followed, go up to a public place that is safe and call 911. Don't bring the problem home with you.
