Tips for a crime free Christmas

  1. Don’t leave presents in full view on the back seat when out shopping. These can be tempting to thieves. Lock them away out of sight in the trunk.
  2. Always lock your car and make sure windows are closed, even if you’re away from your vehicle for just a few minutes. Use a steering lock if possible.
  3. Never leave your keys in the ignition while your vehicle is unattended, even for a few minutes. Opportunistic thieves will often steal cars that have been left with the engine running to defrost the windows.
  4. Don’t leave any valuables in the glove compartment. Take bank cards, mobile phones and satellite navigation systems with you. These items are on a car thieves’ shopping list.
  5. Make sure you park in a well lit area or in an attended car park.
Have a safe and happy holiday season!!
