Instructing taxi drivers not to pick up other passengers as they could be thieves.
2. Keep car doors locked
Keeping car doors locked to guard against kidnapping and theft.
3. Drive on major roads
Only driving on major roads to avoid armed gangs and other criminals in remote locations.
4. Travel during the day
Traveling during daylight hours so that you can see where you are going.
5. Inform others of your whereabouts
