Put your car keys beside your bed at night. Tell your spouse,
your children, your neighbors, your parents, your Dr.'s office, the
check-out girl at the market, everyone you run across to
do this. 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 key chain.
It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into
your house, odds are the burglar/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 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 really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime.
