Apart from your home, your car is probably the most valuable thing you own. And yet it’s also the one most at risk.
Car crime is now a problem that affects us all, no matter where we live.
Car thefts, and thefts from cars, make up almost a third of all reported crime. About one in four cars reported missing each year is never recovered, but these statistics can never take account of the inconvenience caused to you, the owner. If the car is not recovered, it can take a month or more before insurance claims are paid out, not to mention the high costs involved if you have to hire a replacement car to keep you mobile.
Your frustration may not end there. If returned, your car may be badly damaged – in need of repair or beyond use. It’s only after the insurance company’s inspection that you can finally put your vehicle in for what could be expensive repairs.
It all adds up to a lot of delay and inconvenience.
The Police are coming up with ever-more sophisticated means of catching car criminals, such as the use of forensics to lift and identify DNA and fingerprints. But you can stop it from getting that far... Don’t give criminals the opportunity, and make sure car crime isn't something that happens to you.
