This episode focuses on the safety triangle. It’s a concept that I created after crunching the data from years of crime prevention training. We live in a very dynamic, interactive, 3-dimensional environment, subject to the vagaries of weather, our physical health, vehicle crashes, and attempted scams. Throw in downed power lines, snake bites, and the actions of violent criminals who seem to pop up more frequently than in recent memory and it’s easy to see that a lot can go wrong at any given time. But many of us are lulled into a state of disregard for danger because these troubles don’t materialize all that often. Most of the time things are just fine. Until they are not.

Overall, the Safety Triangle emphasizes the importance of being aware of your surroundings, having defenses in place to protect yourself, and being prepared to take appropriate actions in response to potential threats. By focusing on all three components of the Safety Triangle, individuals can increase their safety and feel more prepared to respond to potential hazards.

You can apply the safety triangle to any security-related concern. Awareness, Defenses, Responses. A formula for more peace of mind.
