Holiday Season Safety Tips
If you're traveling
• Get an automatic timer for your lights.
• Ask a neighbor to watch your home, shovel snow, and park in the driveway occasionally.
• Don't forget to stop the mail and newspaper while you are gone.
If you're out for the evening
• Leave some lights on and maybe even a radio or television.
• Be sure to lock all windows and doors.
• Don't display gifts where they can be seen from outside.
If you're shopping
• Stay alert and be aware of what is going on around you.
• Park in a well-lighted place. Lock your car doors and store valuables and packages in the trunk or out of sight.
• Avoid carrying large amounts of cash. Pay by check or with credit cards when possible.
• Carry your purse close to your body and put your wallet in an inside coat or front pants pocket.
• If shopping with children, teach them to go to a store clerk or security guard if you get separated.
