Security and safety are things we think about everyday whether we know it or not. That’s not just security and safety while driving, but also while you are at home in the evenings. I want to share a tip to enhance your home security and honestly, this is something I hadn’t really thought of until now, but it’s so simple and easy to do, you should make it a habit.
My advice is to keep your car keys nearby, “especially when you are home asleep in your bed.” Of course, you have an alarm system on your vehicle and most do these days. It doesn’t have to be on of the systems that tells you to step away from the car or sounds like a storm-warning siren… just an alarm system with a panic button that makes the horn sound and the lights flash. 
For example, if you hear a noise outside your home or someone is trying to get into your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will go off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery goes dead. It doesn’t even matter if the car is in the garage. I heard this bit of advice from a from a neighborhood watch coordinator. It was like a light bulb was turned on in my head. So, the next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys on the counter or a key rack, think of this: It’s a security alarm system that requires no installation and no outside monitoring. Try it for yourself. The alarm can be set off from most everywhere inside your house and it will continue to go off until you reset it with the button on the key fob.
Just a friendly tip. Has anyone ever had to use their panic button in a an emergency?
