                                          Vehicle Security                Dear Friends, Without opportunity there is no crime. This is certainly true when it comes to the theft of vehicles and their contents. Thefts usually occur because owners make it far too easy for the thief. Precautions can be taken to help prevent both types of thefts. Prevent Theft from Your Vehicle: - Never leave valuables on your seat, the floor or the dashboard. Use the trunk and glove compartment for storage. Remove money, cell phones, portable electronic devices and CDs from view. Don’t leave registration or insurance papers in the vehicle. It makes your vehicle easier to sell, and it gives the thief your home address. Take valuables such as cheque books and credit cards with you or leave them at home. Don’t leave luggage on the luggage rack. This is an easy target. Cover valuables stored in the rear of SUVs and trucks. Help Prevent Vehicle Theft: - Take your keys. Nearly 20 percent of all vehicles stolen have the keys in them. Lock your car. Approximately 50 percent of all vehicles stolen are left unlocked. Park in a well-lit and well-travelled area. When possible, park in a lot that has an attendant. Always Keep all your doors locked. Roll your windows up completely. Keep your sunroof closed. Use an audible alarm or ignition kill switch. A steering-wheel locking device is also a strong deterrent. Best Regards, OH&S Team
