Crime Prevention Tips
Do not leave anything of value in your vehicle in plain view.
-
If possible, park your vehicle in your garage. If this is not possible, park in a well-lit area and lock the doors.
-
Never leave a vehicle unattended while running.
-
While out shopping, lock items purchased in your trunk.
-
Protect after-market stereo systems by having them equipped with a removable control face (and taking the faceplate with you.)
