Every day, thousands of people across the world find themselves face-to-face with muggers, rapists, and other attackers. Though it’s easy to believe that this will never happen to you, the truth is that you must be prepared. Consider carrying pepper spray, a stun gun, or another self defense product, and learn how to protect and defend yourself against an attack.
The best self defense move is to avoid an attack in the first place. This includes several commonsense moves, like staying in well-lit areas, and not walking around alone in deserted areas, especially at night. Travel in groups, and don’t be afraid to ask for an escort to your car after an evening shopping trip. If you must be in such situations, remove any flashy jewelry or purses, and cover designer clothing. Do not carry your iPod or other electronics; these can be attractive targets for thieves, and may also distract you. Use common sense to keep yourself from being a target for attacks.
Above all else, pay attention to your surroundings. Be aware of people following you down the street or towards your car. If something seems wrong, react immediately. If you do find yourself in imminent danger, your first step is to try to get away. Move towards other people, into a store, or near traffic or other well-lit areas.
By far the best way to fight back when face-to-face with an attacker is by using pepper spray, stun guns, or other self defense products designed to be used by amateurs. These are easy to use, provided that your attacker comes close enough, and are very effective at disabling the attacker long enough for you to get away. These should be in plain sight if a suspicious person approaches you, because often merely the sight of them can deter an attack.
For the vast majority of people, a physical fight is not a good strategy to escape an attacker. The fact is, in most cases the attacker could overpower you. Plus, your attacker came prepared for a fight, and may have a knife or gun. Avoid these situations if it is within your power to do so.
Martial arts moves, especially those you see in the movies, tend to be impractical in real-world scenarios, though martial arts training can certainly help you stand your ground. Still, if you find yourself without any other defenses, fight back. Do not stop fighting until your attacker stops attacking you and is disabled enough for you to get away. Use punches and kicks, and bite and scratch at your attacker. Aim for the groin, face, and throat. Land constant hits; if you stop fighting back for even a second, your attacker will have a chance to harm you. Whenever you get the slightest chance, run as fast as you can to the nearest area of safety. This is never the preferred result of an attack, but if it comes to a physical fight, do everything in your power to hurt the attacker so that you can get home safely.

Truck Driver Self Defense Safety Kit-product Review
Truckers lead a difficult life. It is sometimes a dangerous one as well.
They are mostly independent business men and women travelling long distances under heavy time and economic restraints. The truck stop has for decades provided a place to rest, to sleep, to eat, to catch up and socialize, to make contacts and just be in contact with others.
A 1999 survey of over 2,000 truckers found that more than 90 percent said that at least once a week, they continue to drive past the point of feeling “safe and alert” because they cannot find a place to stop and sleep. Thirty six percent reported that they have difficulty finding a parking space every night.
The survey also found that drivers often resort to parking in unsafe areas, such as along the shoulders of highways and on highway on-ramps, if they can’t find a place at a rest area. Nearly 60 percent of the surveyed drivers admitted that they do this.
This trucker self defense safety kit has all the tools you’ll need to defend yourself in a non-lethal way.
It starts with a multi functional 200,000 volt stun flashlight by Stun Master. It has a lifetime warranty, comes with a 130 db alarm, required batteries and an attachable red cone for signaling or danger warning.
This self defense safety kit also has a 9 oz pistol grip ‘Wildfire’ pepper spray-the strongest concentration at 18% on the market. It is the same model of pepper spray ‘Dog the Bounty Hunter’ uses. A holster is included so carrying the spray is a snap.
A 4 in 1 auto emergency tool comes with the kit. It acts as a seatbelt cutter, super bright flashlight, window escape hammer and blinking emergency light.
The Nap Alarm is one of the simplest yet effective tools to detect and defeat falling asleep at the wheel. Hook it over your ear and if your hear nods as in falling asleep a loud alarm sounds.
A lifetime subscription to an informative newsletter on home security and self defense tips and special offers is included along with a 20 page e-book on stun guns and TASERS.
There is an option to get a C2 TASER at a discounted price too.
