Volume 1 #2 Safety on Public Transportation




Be sure to lock before you leave, and let a neighbor have a key. 
When leaving your home, here is some valuable advice.


GOING TO THE MARKET OR OUT TO DINNER?
A residence which presents a "lived-in" appearance is a deterrent
to burglars.  Never leave notes that can inform a burglar that
your house is unoccupied.  Make certain all windows and doors
are secured before departing.  An empty garage advertises your
absence, so
close the doors.

When going out at night, leave one or more interior lights on
and perhaps have a
radio playing (TV sets should not be left
unattended).  Perhaps even
timers may be purchased that will turn lights
on and off during your absence.


Do not leave door keys under flower pots or doormats, inside
an unlocked mailbox, over the doorway, or in other obvious
places.

WHEN PLANNING VACATIONS OR PROLONGED ABSENCES -
Discontinue milk, newspaper, and other deliveries by phone or
in person ahead of time.
  Do not leave notes on your doors.
You may want to also inspect your water pipes and gas pipes for leaks before you leave.

Arrange for lawn care and have someone remove advertising
circulars and other
debris regularly.  On the other hand,
several toys scattered about will create an impression of
occupancy. You could get them to move your
lawn furniture around.

Notify the post office to forward your mail or have a
trustworthy person pick it up daily.  Apartment house tenants
should also heed this hint since
stuffed mail receptacles are
a giveaway when no one is home.


Inform neighbors of your absence so they can be extra alert
for suspicious persons.  Leave a key with them so your place
may be periodically inspected.  Ask them to
vary the positions
of your shades and blinds.

When you leave,
do not publicize your plans.  Some burglars
specialize in reading newspaper accounts of other people's
vacation activities.


If you find a door or window has been forced or broken while
you were away,
DO NOT ENTER.  The criminal may still be
inside.  Use a neighbor's phone immediately to notify the police.


Do not touch anything or clean up if a crime has occurred. 
Preserve the scene until police inspect for evidence.

ALWAYS REMEMBER TO -
1. Lock before you leave.
2. Trust a neighbor with a key.
3. Be a concerned neighbor - yourself.

ELEVATOR SAFETY
1. Observe elevator interior before entering. Wait until the next elevator if you are uncertain of any occupant.
2. Females riding the elevator alone should always stand near the control panel. If accosted, press ALL buttons.
3. If a suspicious person enters the elevator, exit before the door closes.
4. Before exiting from the elevator, observe the corridor for suspicious activity.
