up all your pockets so the cops can't plant drugs on you!
If catching a cab make sure all the doors are locked and if walking wear dark clothing and just slink from doorway to doorway when no one is looking..balaclavas also help remain incognito.
Of course you will be safe...just don't do anything stupid.
