Contingency Corner: Car Door Locks
One of the simplest risk management tools at your disposal is locking your car doors while driving.
Making this simple action a part of your routine can help avoid issues ranging from harassment to theft to assault:
- Create a habit of locking the car doors as soon as all passengers are inside
- Confirm doors are locked, especially when stopped or moving slowly
- Use extra caution when entering or exiting your car as these transitions create distraction and vulnerability
- Take note of people loitering when preparing to enter or exit your car
- Keep windows up or only slightly open to avoid access into the car
