Rule # 124
Stay off drugs

Don’t take any drugs, they may impair your reaction time. I don’t mean an inhaler or some aspirin but recreational drugs. Mind-altering drugs are a definite no no. Not only are they unsafe but you may see things that aren’t really there; you might shoot your buddy thinking he’s a zombie.

Rule # 125
Acquire a Leather jacket

Get yourself a leather jacket. Leather is very strong and durable, it can fight the elements and may help pad against a bite.

Rule # 126
Two-door car rule

Try to ride shotgun when you are unable to drive. Never go in the back seat of a two-door car. If there is an accident this will leave you vulnerable to attack while unable to exit the vehicle.

Rule # 127
Learn how to hot wire a car

It is important to learn how to hot wire a car, this is a must. You will be able to get out of many situations with your newfound skill.

Knowledge is power

Read as much as you can, the more you learn, the more skills you will have. Learn from books, friends and other survivors.

Rule # 129
Don’t make silly mistakes

Don’t make silly mistakes, this is a great rule. Think and rethink everything you do.

Rule # 130
Always check that they are dead

This is very important. Always check that the zombies are dead. Check and check again. Do this every time you kill one and it will become second nature.

Rule # 131
Don’t let yourself get depressed

Don’t let the word depression be part of your vocabulary, stay positive and keep fighting.

Rule # 132
Be alert twenty-four seven

Ok, it will be hard and virtually impossible to be alert twenty-four seven. Do it in a team or if you are on your own try to stay alert as long as possible, even when you are asleep. Always have someone on the lookout twenty-four seven. Take it in turns with shifts, even if you think you are 100% safe you are not.
This will become tiresome but make it a part of everyday, something you have to do like brush your teeth. Take turns at different hours, it works much better the more people there are in the group. Who knows, the late night shift might not come around again for a good few days.

Rule # 133
Power nap regularly

Change your regular sleep pattern and take twenty-minute power naps, ideally every three hours. Power naps are great and after you’ve used them for a while you will get used to them. When you get a chance you can even have a few hours’ sleep and still power nap.

Rule # 134
Hygiene

Hygiene is a must, wash every chance you get (at least daily). You can’t afford to let your hygiene go.

Rule # 135
Always Travel with a partner
