Whilst driving

Prepare for long journeys in advance, and ensure we have enough money,
fuel, water, and a map. Take a torch
Keep all doors locked, especially after dark. This prevents people from getting
into the car, or stealing valuables whilst we are at a standstill. Never leave
property open to view in our vehicle
If driving late at night, ensure someone knows what time we are expected
home. Let someone know our whereabouts
Don’t leave our car unlocked whilst paying for petrol
When parked, never leave valuables on view in the car. It is not advisable to
leave valuables at all in the car, even in the boot. Laptops, briefcases, golf clubs, and mobile phones are often on the stolen list, aside from any audio equipment. If we have central locking the chances are, if our door is unlocked, so is our boot
