Safety Precautions at the Gas Pump


When it comes to staying aware of your surroundings, it is important to apply practical techniques at all times to ensure safety. There are different locations that people naturally let their defenses down and consequently become more susceptible to attacks. The gas station is one of those interesting places were people turn into gazelles at waterholes. People get so focused and concentrated on "filling up," that they turn their back to the world and lose sight of what is happening around them. Take it from us, if you stare at the dollar signs adding up - the price will not get any cheaper. And if you turn your attention away from your gas tank - it will not overflow! "There is no reason you can't insert the nozzle, start the gasoline flow and then turn your back to the vehicle. This, at once, covers your back and leaves you facing the potential danger zone with much more opportunity to see an approaching attack" (2014 Buyer's Guide Handguns).

Along with keeping your eyes on the danger zone, it is essential that you have your gun-hand free and ready to access your firearm. You never want to be in a situation were you are unable to defend yourself, if needed. So let your gas tank fill up automatically, keep your eyes pealed and keep your gun-hand available!
