· Always be aware of your surroundings.

· Stay in well-lit areas as much as possible.

· Walk confidently, directly, at a steady pace. A rapist looks for someone who appears vulnerable.

· Walk on the side of the street facing traffic.

· Walk close to the curb. Avoid doorways, bushes and alleys where rapists can hide.

· If you think you are being followed, walk quickly to areas where there are people and lights. If a car appears to be following you, turn and walk in the opposite direction or walk on the other side of the street.

· Be careful when people stop you for directions or money. Always reply from a distance and never get too close to the car.

· If you are in trouble or feel you are in danger, don't be afraid to attract help any way you can. Scream, yell or run away to safety.

· Always lock your car. Keep your car locked when you are away from it to keep someone from hiding and waiting inside.

· When you are inside the car, lock the doors for safety.

· Look inside and around your car before you get in.
