7 Safety Tips That'll Help You Stay Safe at Night
-
Park in a well-lit area: When possible, choose parking spots that are well-lit and close to your destination. This will help enhance your visibility and reduce the chances of being targeted.
-
Wear an invisaWear: invisaWear's jewelry and accessories are equipped with safety technology hidden inside. When activated, it can instantly send an alert to your emergency contacts and 9-1-1 along with your location letting them know you need help. By wearing an invisaWear, you can have an extra safety measure readily accessible in case of emergencies or situations where you feel unsafe.
-
Walk confidently: Projecting confidence while walking can deter potential threats. Maintain good posture, walk with purpose, and make eye contact with others to show that you are aware of your surroundings.
-
Stay in well-populated areas: Stick to well-populated and well-lit areas as much as possible. Avoid shortcuts through isolated or poorly lit areas, especially after dark.
-
Share your plans: Inform a family member or friend about your plans, including your estimated time of arrival and departure. Did you know that invisaWear has a Safety Timer where you can invite ADT (& optionally emergency contacts) to track you via GPS for up to 4 hours? ADT will alert 9-1-1 and your emergency contacts if the timer you set expires and you don't respond.
-
Use the buddy system: If possible, try to walk with a friend or a group when going out during darker hours. There is safety in numbers, and having someone by your side can provide an extra layer of security.
-
Trust your intuition: Always trust your instincts. If a situation or person feels unsafe or uncomfortable, remove yourself from it. Your intuition is a powerful tool for self-protection.
