Tip
of the Week
Vehicle Burglary Prevention
Thieves look for easy
and inviting targets when it comes to selecting a vehicle to burglarize or
steal from. It is up to you to make every effort to prevent your car from being
targeted. Here are some basic tips that will make your vehicle a little less
inviting to thieves:
*LOCK
your car!
*Always park in
well-lighted areas.
*Install motion
lights in your driveway.
*Install and use
a vehicle alarm.
*DO NOT leave valuables in plain
view.
*Leave all items
of value at home if possible.
*Look around when
you park. Notice anyone or anything suspicious? Write down license plates
and descriptions. Alert on-site security or staff and CALL the police.
Many auto burglaries or
thefts from cars occur right in a residential driveway, and too often, it is
because the vehicle was never locked. Suspects will often target cars that are
left unlocked, walking up and down a street trying car doors all the way. Take
the time to secure your vehicle. Other thieves target victims by watching what
is placed inside a trunk or hatch. If you plan on stopping by the gym, park,
or elsewhere after work, take the time before you leave to place your
belongings safely in the trunk. Don't wait until you park to then transfer
your laptop, purse, bag, or briefcase to the trunk. Thieves may be watching and
targeting your car.
These are just a few
tips to help prevent you from becoming a victim of auto burglary. Be proactive,
look around, and most importantly, don't hesitate to call the police if you see
something or someone suspicious
