What is the best practice for maintaining situational awareness while carrying concealed?

  1. Constantly moving your head to scan the environment

  2. Avoiding any eye contact

  3. Staying in well-lit areas only

  4. Being alert and aware of your surroundings

The correct answer is: Being alert and aware of your surroundings

Constantly moving your head to scan the environment may lead to appearing suspicious and drawing attention to yourself, making it difficult to maintain a low profile while carrying concealed. Avoiding any eye contact can also raise suspicion and make it difficult to be aware of potential threats. Staying in well-lit areas only limits your options for movement and may not necessarily increase your situational awareness. Being alert and aware of your surroundings allows you to stay vigilant and identify potential threats while blending in with your surroundings. It also allows you to remain calm and make quick decisions if a situation arises.
