Beware of Gas Stations Crimes:
1. Choose the time and place to buy gas, don't let the car decide that for you.
2. Be willing to buy the most expensive gas.
3. Choose a store with excellent lighting and a clear field of vision.
4. Purchase gas at a store that allows you to purchase without going inside.
5. Lock the car doors. Google the crime "sliding."
6. You are in charge of what happens to you. Control any interactions with strangers.
7. Do a drive-by. If anything looks out of place, come back later or got to the next gas station.
8. Look for people who don't look like they belong there. Trust your gut, it's correct.
9. Avoid any place with people "hanging out."
10. Finally, don't look at your phone while you pump gas.
