Surviving being kidnapped.

The first thing you want to do when you do get kidnapped is to have your cell phone on. Dial 911 then keep it hidden and sound low that way they won't be able to hear if the 911 operator is talking. This way the police can follow the signal of the cell phone and follow it to where ever you are at. If you can't get to your cell phone try to remember sounds and sights so you know where you are being taken to. This way when you get a change to escape you can find your way to help. Always keep a small knife, a tazer, or some pepper spray on you to make it harder for them to take you in the first place. If you feel that they may want to kill you no matter what try to win their trust by doing exactly what they want. Because once you win their trust they will slip up eventually and then you will have a way to get help to you. Just remember also to remain calm at all times regardless of the situation that you are in. Kidnappers only kidnap because someone is not paying attention to their surroundings or they are by themselves. They also look for dark places so if you work at a place where during business hours you have to park far from the door then take the time and make sure that you walk with someone out to your car. If you are parked in different places ride in the one person car to your car. This way if any one is looking to snatch someone it makes it harder to do.
