Unfortunately, these crimes are now occurring now and then in all Indian cities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Mr. Atul Mahajan, Director of <a title=\"http:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/\" href=\"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/security-guard-service.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Miraz Securitas Pvt Ltd which is Delhi\u2019s top Security Guard Agency<\/a> says today one needs to be extremely vigilant while traveling alone at odd hours. Here are some handy tips that everyone, especially single women, should follow while travelling alone in these cabs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Send the Cab Details to People you Trust<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Mobile app-based cap services send SMS that has the car number, car type, driver name, and driver\u2019s phone number. The moment a rider receives the message she must forward these details to their trusted sources and to the family member.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Google Device Management<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Every Android phone offers the feature of device management. It allows any computer or phone to track the GPS location of your phone if they know the Google login credentials of your Google account used on the Android phone. Hence, share your Android phone\u2019s Google account credentials with a tech-savvy family member or with a trusted friend so in case you feel uneasy about a ride, you can inform the person, and they can keep tracking your location through your phone\u2019s GPS<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Always Take Familiar Routes<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Take a route you are familiar with. You can always instruct the driver for which turn to take and which one to skip. This will prevent the cab driver from going off the route and you will know exactly where you are heading. If you do not know the way, pay attention to the road. Note down landmarks and turns that you think are important if necessary.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Carry an Umbrella<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Since monsoons are here, this year buy a long old-style umbrella. It might give an odd feeling, may look old-fashioned, or seem like an extra burden but remember long rod that can double up as a rod to use for self-defence and to break a car window.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Always Carry a Pepper Spray<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Apart from an umbrella, keep a pepper spray with you. If you don\u2019t have a pepper spray, use a deodorant just in case you need it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Fall Asleep<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Do not fall asleep when you are travelling, particularly at night. You might lose track of your route, and that can put you at risk.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Talk to Someone Continuously<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Before you start your ride, talk on the phone and tell the person the driver\u2019s name and car number. Make sure you talk loudly enough so the driver can hear that you have shared the driver and cab\u2019s details. If you feel somethingis\u00a0 not right in the ride then keep talking to someone in the family or with a friend and keep posting where you have reached and how long you think you will take to reach home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Do Not Take a Cab Alone when You are Visibly Drunk<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>These cabs come in handy after a Friday night out. But avoid boarding them alone if you are drunk too much. Make sure you have a\u00a0known company in that case. If you have had a little to drink and are just a little tipsy, try to act like you are not drunk at all. Acting drunk makes you look vulnerable.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Atul Mahajan, Director of Miraz Securitas Pvt Ltd which is Delhi\u2019s top Security Guard Agency says today one needs to be extremely vigilant while traveling alone at odd hours. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":128,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[324,378,413,415,414,485],"tags":[9,8,38,138,278],"class_list":["post-129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hire-security-guards-in-delhi","category-hire-security-guards-in-gurgaon","category-hire-security-gurads-for-showrooms-in-delhi-ncr","category-hire-security-gurads-for-showrooms-in-gurugram","category-hire-security-gurads-for-showrooms-in-noida","category-hire-security-services-for-bpo-and-kpo","tag-best-security-guard-agency-in-delhi","tag-best-security-guard-company-in-delhi","tag-best-security-services-delhi","tag-hire-bodyguards-in-india","tag-hire-security-guards-in-india"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1659,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129\/revisions\/1659"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/miraz-securitas.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
