For Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention

To prevent motor vehicle crime, always lock your car, never leave keys inside, keep valuables hidden, and park in well-lit, busier areas. Use Faraday bags for key-less entry fobs to block signal theft and call 999 in an emergency or 101 for non-emergencies to report crime to the police. 

Always lock your car and close all windows when you leave it. 

Never leave valuables or possessions visible in your car; remove them completely. 

Avoid dark, secluded areas. Park in busy, well-lit locations or at a Park Mark accredited car park. 

Never leave keys in the ignition. Store car keys away from your front door to prevent them being taken through a letterbox. 

If your vehicle has a key-less entry system, use a Faraday bag to block thieves from being able to "relay" the signal from your car keys. 

In traffic, lock your doors and keep enough space to get out of a tight spot. If you are bumped from behind, drive to a safe, public place before pulling over.
