Parking Your Vehicle
- Take your vehicle’s key; do not leave it in or on your vehicle.
2. Close and lock all windows and doors when you park.
3. Park in well-lit areas if possible.
4. Never leave valuables in your vehicle, especially if they can be seen from outside the vehicle.
Thieves want vehicle parts and valuable items, too. Radios and wheel covers aren’t the only popular stolen vehicle parts thieves take. They want whatever sells, from the mandated labeled parts to those that aren’t.
Some of the most popular vehicle parts or valuable items stolen from vehicles include doors, engines, transmissions, catalytic converters, air bags, radios, GPS units, cell phones, iPads, laptops, and purses.
Your LOL’s and OMG’s can wait!
It only takes a second, but it can have life-long repercussions!
