[size 1]Keep this in mind when you are traveling.
This has been around for awhile but just in case you haven't seen it....
GREAT IDEA:
Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise
outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press
the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn
will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery
dies.
This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you
come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this: It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and
requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere
inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or
until you reset it with the button on the alarm key.
It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are the burglar or rapist won't stick around .... after a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and the criminal won't want that.
And, remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking
lot. The alarm can work the same way there. This is something that
should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or
prevent a sexual abuse crime.[/size]
