Simple Steps to Theft Prevention

1) Lock your doors. Most door locks can be jimmied with the right tools, but attempting to unlock a car door that way attracts attention (usually in the form of a helpful passerby) that car thieves really don't want. Studies show that just by locking your car doors when you get out you can decrease the chances that you'll become a victim by up to 60%.

2) Install a car alarm. Most people try to tune out car alarms, but most of them can't help but look to see what's going on-and just might catch a car thief in the process. Most auto insurance providers will offer you a reasonable discount if your car is protected by an alarm.

3) Roll up your windows. Again, an open window is an open invitation-especially when your doors are locked. You want to wrap your car up tighter than Ft. Knox.

4) Park in well lit areas. Thieves don't like to be seen, and so they prey on vehicles out of sight of the public eye.

5) Install a fuel switch or engine switch. These nifty little devices make sure that your friendly neighborhood car thieves aren't going very far.
