Self-defense Tip of the Week

I will try to have one of these simple things YOU can do to keep yourself safe every week.  Some are preventative, others are to help you in an actual attack; all of them involve plain common sense.

Tip #1:  Check your car     
 

When you park your car in a lot, or anywhere out in the open, walk completely around the vehicle before you get in, in case someone may be hiding in order to attack you when you open the door.  This is important if you have your hands full, because we often get distracted when putting items into the back seat or the trunk of the car.
