If you are worried about getting ganked, you can always carry a little less and train to fly a 'Battle Mammoth'.

If the gankers are smart, they will scan your ship fitting first, realize you are bait, and leave you alone. They are looking for easy prey. Some people that fly battle mammoths are looking to be the wolf in sheep's clothing that ganks high sec miners, so the gankers might just leave you alone.
If you are lucky, your battle mammoth might be a match for your gankers. When they engage you, just double web, scram and neut them until Concord arrives to finish them off. Now, bask in the warm shivery feeling of a killmail.
If you don't want to get into high-sec combat at all, ever...
-you might consider putting warp core stabilizers in some or all your low slots, or warp core stabs and nano-stabs to help with aligning time. Warp core stabs means you can't be warp scrambled, so you can get away.
-Put a 10mn afterburner in one of the mid slots. If you run into a gate camp, reselect the gate you just came through and burn back to gate. Kind of a last ditch effort, but you might make it.
-Put some neuts (power neutralizers) in the two high slots, which can drain the capacitor of a ship that you target. Stagger them for better effect.
-Safespots: There are some safespots you can make that would help you.
a) One of these is 'insta-undock'. At places where you frequent (such as trade hubs), get into a fast ship and undock. When you get to about 1000 km from the station, make a bookmark with your 'people and places'. Name this 'Insta-undock'.
b) Do the same for jump gates, especially choke points such as Niarja (on the way from Jita to Amarr). Take a fast ship, fly about 1000 km in a strait line from the gate, make a bookmark and call it 'Insta-warp'.
Now, if you are in a position where you hear the 'boop boop boop' sound of someone targeting you, or see the flashing red box of a silent targeter, or whenever you feel threatened, just right click in space and all your bookmarks are there. Warp to one, and you are free and clear.
Also, just before downtime seems like the safest time to be hauling stuff around.
Also, keep your hauler in an NPC corpo |
