STATE INTERNAL PROTECTIVE SERVICES, INC. SIPS’s team focuses on safety first and tries to prevent you not to become a victim of carjacking.
There are several ways that you can protect yourself from being the victim of a carjacking incident:

• Always park in well lighted areas
• When approaching the vehicle, keep the keys in your hand
• Check the area around the vehicle for suspicious persons when you are approaching it
• Keep the doors and windows shut when you are driving the vehicle
• When stopping at a traffic signal or stop sign, try to allow sufficient space to change into another lane
• Travel on well traveled and illuminated roads
• Be familiar with the streets and the locations you plan to visit
• Keep road maps out of sight to avoid being identified as a being unfamiliar with the area
• Never open the vehicle for strangers If you are confronted by a carjacker remember:
• Choose life over property...give up the vehicle and walk away (preferably to the rear of the car)
• If pushed inside the car, attempt to escape through any other door
