Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended sequence for entering a vehicle during a potential threat?

The recommended sequence is to enter, immediately close and lock doors, start the engine, put the car in drive, and then fasten your seatbelt. This prioritizes the ability to flee quickly if necessary.

Why is it important to include children in self-defense planning?

Including children in self-defense planning ensures they know how to react in dangerous situations, such as quickly buckling themselves in to allow adults to maintain situational awareness and focus on escape.

What are 'transitional spaces' in self-defense?

Transitional spaces are areas like sidewalks, parking lots, or building entrances/exits where individuals are more vulnerable. Vigilance is crucial in these locations.

Should property be prioritized over personal safety during an attack?

No, personal safety and the safety of loved ones are paramount. Property, like a vehicle, is replaceable, but lives are not. Use your vehicle as a tool for escape if necessary.
