This one is especially for the ladies;
When walking to your car, have your car keys in your fist (right if you are right-handed, left if you're a southpaw), with the keys prodruding through your fingers, sort of like brass knuckles.
If you are attacked, hit your attacker in the eyes as hard as you can with your fistfull of keys. It'll hurt a little, but it'll hurt your assailant a lot, and you'll be able to get away with relative ease. Mostly because your assailant will be blind, bleeding, and probably screaming.
When approaching your car, approach from the rear and look through the rear window, then the passenger side, then the drivers side windows to make sure no one has concealed themselves inside.
If you are attacked, scream "FIRE" instead of "HELP" or "RAPE". People will ignore the latter, but "FIRE" gets everyone's attention.
