If you look like most people, you probably use parking in everyday life, whether it is on the territory of the training campus, in the shopping center or where you are working. According to the statistical management of justice, more than 1 out of 10 crimes against property are performed in parking or garages. Anyone who walks one can become a potential goal. But you will not be a victim if you pay attention to what surrounds you. Remember these four security tips if you leave the car in the parking lot:
See where you park
Be sure to park in a well-lit place. Close to the entrance / exit - the perfect option. You must carefully choose where to park the car so as not to spend an extra time in search of the place. Always make a photo of parking space - so it will work quickly. If possible, please park at the first level so that you do not have to climb the elevator or on the stairs when you return. Stairs and elevators are excellent shelters for criminals.

Do not be distructed
Keep your eyes and ears open when you leave the garage and go to it. Do not speak and do not write text messages on a mobile phone and do not use headphones to listen to music. These things can distract you. Malefactors love to hunt people who do not notice anything around. Go with a raised head and take care of what happens around you. If you notice that someone hides, unfold and exit the garage. Then you should notify the police or parking machine.
Remove keys
Returning to the car, keep the keys from the car in your hand to open the door as quickly as possible. Do not waste time on their search in a handbag or pockets - for this buy a special key chain that you pin down to the handle bag. You can also use your keys as a weapon. As soon as you sit in the car, bring it - even before you fastened the seat belt - get it down and leave as quickly as possible. Do not contact the radio or GPS and do not remove your mobile phone. If you have packages, do not put them in the trunk.
