- Try to avoid walking alone, particularly during hours of darkness. If you must walk alone at night use well-lit streets with as much vehicle traffic as possible and walk near the curb.
- Avoid carrying a purse and keep a wallet in your pocket instead. Keeping money separate will allow you to hand over your cash without sacrificing your credit cards identification and personal papers. If you must carry a purse clutch it tightly under your arm and not loosely hung from your shoulder.
- Scan the area ahead as you walk. If you observe suspicious person or vehicles, change direction and walk to a place of safety.

- After dark, avoid public parks, vacant lots and areas with excessive trees and bushes.
- While waiting for a bus or taxi if the bus-stop is deserted, wait in a well-lit section with your back against the wall if possible.
- If you are robbed, obey the robber's instructions. Try to memorize the robber's physical features, clothing, motor vehicle and direction of travel. Call the police at the nearest safe telephone.
