If at work, when returning to your vehicle, try to walk with a co-worker or security officer. Then, give your escort a ride back to the building.

\ Park in a visible and well-lit area near your building.*

\ If you park in a garage, look for a spot near the parking attendant, or near the stairs or exit.*

\ Park near the main entrance of the building.*

\ Have your keys in your hand as you approach your vehicle.*

\ If someone is loitering or appears to be following you pull out your cell phone and have a conversation the person following is clearly going to hear.*

\ Once inside your vehicle, lock the doors and keep the windows up.*

\ Always be aware of your surroundings. Keep your head up and constantly scanning.*

\ Don’t wear headphones or have your head buried on your phone. You must be situationally aware.*
