Take These To Bed With You ....No Joke


Tell your spouse, your children, your neighbors, your parents,
your Dr's office, the check-out girl at the market, everyone you
run across.
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
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.

I am sending this to everyone I know because I think it is fantastic. 
Would also be useful for any emergency, such as a heart attack,
where you can't reach a phone.  
I have has suggested to my husband that he carry his car keys
with him in case he has a problem outside and I can't hear him.
He can activate the car alarm and then I'll know there's a problem.
We did tried this from our basement and also from our
bedroom and it does set off the alarm and horn on my van.
I hope this information is helpful to some and I hope you copy
and paste it in an email or omail to all your friends.
Be safe, be healthy and be happy
