- At all times be aware of your surroundings
 especially at night.
- Pay attention to bushes and dark areas around buildings and try to avoid such areas if at possible.
- Always have your keys out and ready before reaching your vehicle.
- Walk to classes or to your vehicle with someone else or in groups.
- Put all personal items in the trunk of your vehicle to keep them out of plain sight. Try not to bring expensive items to school if not needed for your class.
- Always roll windows up and lock vehicles while in class.
- Always check the interior of the vehicle before getting into it, such as the back seat and back floorboard.
- If you observe suspicious activity, contact your instructor or call the switchboard by dialing 0 from any campus telephone to notify campus police immediately.
- Try to park in well lighted areas near your designated building.
- If you lock your keys in your vehicle, Surry Community College Police Department (SCCPD) will attempt to unlock the vehicle for you. Some newer cars we are unable to help, but a locksmith can be called to assist whenever needed.
- SCCPD also provides a service of boosting cars in case of a dead battery.
- If you feel you need an escort to your vehicle, then we will provide this service, unless SCCPD officers are tied up on another call.
