This was just sent to me this morning.
I thought it was a great idea for anyone. :idea:
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 fob
chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car
alarm goes off when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are
the burglar or 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 stop a sexual abuse crime.
