Preventing Theft From Autos
There are many things that can be done to target-harden vehicles in order to help police stop theft from autos in our community. Such crime prevention measures are as follows:
- Use off-street parking, if available (e.g., driveways)
- When parking on the street, select well-lit areas
- Remove all valuables from the interior (e.g., car keys, house keys, cash, coins, laptops, cell phones, etc.) before leaving the vehicle
- Equip vehicle with an audible alarm system
However, the most important thing that can be done to avoid becoming a victim of theft from auto is….
LOCK THE CAR!
