Nighttime Stalker

WWYD Wednesday

Driving home after work, you notice the same vehicle behind you through several turns. You are only two minutes from home, but something feels wrong.

WWYD: keep driving home, call 911, head to a busy, well-lit location, or choose another route to help? What is your first move?

Fact Check Friday

You do not need proof of someone’s intentions to choose a safer plan. If you believe you are being followed, avoid leading the vehicle to your home.

Stay in your vehicle, avoid confrontation, and head toward a busy, well-lit public location. Call 911 if you feel threatened. Do not try to outrun, brake-check, or engage the other driver.

Situational awareness means noticing changes and giving yourself permission to respond.
