• Do not leave valuables in your vehicle. If you have no other option, secure your valuables in the trunk or in an area where they will not be visible.       
  
• If possible, park your vehicle in a well lit area. Avoid parking your vehicle in areas that offer thieves a place to hide.    
  
• Make sure your vehicle is locked. Many thefts occur as a result of the owner leaving their vehicle unlocked.
  
• Do not leave power cords for computers, cell phones or GPS units in plain view. These are indicators there may be electronic devices in your vehicle and will make your vehicle a likely target.
  
• Many vehicles are broken into with the intent of stealing the vehicle itself. Visible anti-theft devices, like steering wheel locks, steering column collars or brake pedal locks, may discourage the would-be thief from breaking in and attempting to steal your vehicle.
