Recent rash of vehicle break ins!

 

Learn what you can do to help protect yourself!

 

·       Rest stops along the I-5 corridor have recently been targets for thieves.  When stopping at rest areas consider having one person stay with the vehicle at all times. 

·       When using vans, you cannot always stow your bags out of plain sight.  If you must leave the vehicle, park it in the most visible area.  If going in a restaurant, choose one where you can see the vehicle while you are inside dining. 

·       Always lock your vehicle.

·       Park in busy and well-lit areas.

·       Never keep your vehicle title, credit cards, wallet, purse, cash or other important documents inside your vehicle.
