Do You Sneak a Peek?
Before you get into your vehicle do you always sneak a peek inside first? Or do you just jump in because you’re always in a hurry to get to your next destination?
Make it a habit to always look inside your vehicle prior to opening the door. Whether it is day or night, locked or unlocked, parked in your garage or parked in public – always look first.
Tinted windows? Then get right up to the glass and peer in. You would not likely jump into a swimming pool without checking to see if there is water in there – likewise, do not get into the safety of your vehicle until you’ve determined that it is truly safe.
At night you should use a flashlight to shine into the front, back and hatch. If someone was lying in wait, you’d surely see him. Too many people are counting on you for you to take the “it won’t happen to me” mindset.
