k. Clogs, high heels, and tight skirts are hard to run and fight in. Capes, scarves, and long necklaces are easy to grab. Modify your fashion style, or wear comfortable clothing when walking alone (change into dress-up clothes later), or think through how you would fight in your dress-up clothes (for example, kicking off your high heels or hiking your skirt up around your hips before starting to run or kick). Imagine ramming your heel through the foot of your assailant – it could save you from injury.
l. Avoid being on the street alone if you are upset or under the influence of drugs or alcohol, It’s best to have someone go with you.
2. Always have a charged up cell phone with you
