This great idea comes from Ken Howes, Executive Director of the American Association of State Troopers. Pass the word!
Put your car keys beside your bed at night.
If
you hear a noise outside your home or if someone is trying to get into
your house, just press the panic button on your car's key fob. The
alarm will be set off and the car's horn will continue to blare until
either you turn it off or the car battery dies.
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. It works if you park in your driveway or
in your garage.
If
the car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house
odds are the intruder won't stick around. After a few seconds all your
neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and,
sure enough, 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 be shared with everyone you know. Who knows?
Maybe it could save a life or prevent a robbery or a sexual abuse
crime.
It would also be useful for ANY emergency, such as if you suffer a heart attack or stroke or you fall and can't reach a phone.
