General Safety Tips

General Safety Tips:

  • If you smell or see smoke or fire, pull the nearest fire alarm.
  • Trust your instincts. If a place or situation doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Leave.
  • Avoid shortcuts and isolated areas when walking after dark.
  • Don’t walk alone after dark. Early evening to late evening, travel only in groups of three or more in well-lit and heavily traveled areas.
  • When traveling in your vehicle, keep windows up and doors locked.
  • If approached, don’t resist a robber - especially if he/she has a weapon.
  • Never venture into or through dark or undesirable neighborhoods.
  • Don’t carry large sums of cash.
  • If attacked or approached by someone suspicious, contact the police immediately by calling 911. Get a good description of the person and their direction of travel.
