Vehicle Crime Prevention Tips
  • Keep the doors to your vehicle locked whenever it is unoccupied.
  • Do not leave any items of value in your vehicle. If you must leave valuables in the vehicle, please keep them in the trunk and out of sight.
  • Do not leave your vehicle running while you enter a store to pay for gas or to make a purchase.
  • Never leave your keys in your vehicle.
  • When selling your vehicle, make sure that you verify that the check used to pay for the vehicle is good before you allow the buyer to take possession of the vehicle. Be aware that it is very easy to forge a cashier's or bank check.
  • Always try to park your vehicle in an area that is well lighted.
  • Do not allow anyone to borrow your vehicle unless you know and trust them completely.
  • Park your vehicle in your locked garage whenever possible.
