West Midlands Police advise preventing vehicle crime by locking vehicles, keeping keys in signal-blocking Faraday pouches to prevent keyless theft, and parking in well-lit, secure areas. They recommend using physical deterrents like steering locks and removing all valuables from display. Report crime via 101 or anonymously to Crimestoppers. Key Vehicle Crime Prevention Tips Keyless Entry Security: Use a Faraday bag/pouch for keys to stop signal boosting, and turn off key fob signals when not in use. Secure Parking: Use garages, secure car parks, or well-lit areas to prevent theft and damage. Locking and Security: Always double-check doors are locked. Use additional security devices like steering wheel locks or gear lever locks. Remove Valuables: Do not leave electronics, tools, or bags in the car, as this attracts opportunist thieves. Security Products: Visit the Secured by Design website for approved locks and security products. Specific Vehicle Theft Concerns Van Crime: Secure tools and consider aftermarket deadlocks. Number Plates: Use tamper-proof screws to prevent thieves from stealing plates for other crimes. Motorcycles: Use heavy-duty chains and covers, and register on databases. Police Action and Reporting ANPR Cameras: Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is used to track and recover stolen vehicles.
