*Tips To Help Prevent Auto Theft and Burglary*

Always roll up your windows, lock your doors and take your key, even if you
will be away from your vehicle for a short time.

Never leave your car running unattended, even in the winter to warm up.

Park in a visible area with good lighting, such as an attended lot.

If your residence has a garage, park inside it rather than in your driveway.

Don't leave information such as titles or insurance paperwork inside your
vehicle, as those can be used for identity theft.

Get your car's VIN etched onto one of the windows.

Consider using an anti-theft device such as a kill switch, a steering wheel
lock, a collar, or a brake lock.

Don't leave anything in plain view inside your vehicle. Place items in your
trunk before reaching your destination.

Don't leave garage door openers, firearms, wallets, purses, or electronics
in your vehicle.
