"Some time ago, my friend’s car was parked in an alley on the street in the city. As a result, when I went to drive the car the next day, I found that the window glass was broken, and everything in the car was taken away. Together with repairing the window, I lost several thousand yuan. Now it is getting closer and closer to the Spring Festival, and thieves are becoming rampant. Is there any way to prevent thieves?" On January 21, Xiao Su, a cyclist at the Cheyou Club in Qubao, asked the reporter.
The end of the year is a period of high incidence of all kinds of criminal cases, and theft incidents involving vehicles and property in vehicles are common. Therefore, how to prevent theft and robbery has once again become a hot topic for car owners. To this end, the reporter interviewed Master Zhou, who has 25 years of driving experience.
Parking position is particular.
Parking your car in a guarded parking lot is the easiest way to prevent theft. In this way, you can park in peace of mind, and you don’t have to worry about the theft of the items in the car, and you don’t have to face the risk of being fined for parking at will, just pay the parking fee.
If it is inconvenient to park in the parking lot, try to find a place with monitoring probes to park. At present, many places in the city are equipped with monitoring probes. In case of any situation, there are traces to follow.
Don’t leave your belongings in the car
Master Zhou introduced that many car owners like to put their mobile phones and wallets on the dashboard or the passenger seat. This habit is a bit arrogant and it is easy to break the money. "The thief looking for the target is nothing more than spying on which car has something to steal. If the owner leaves the property in such an obvious position, it will naturally facilitate the thief to commit crimes. " Master Zhou reminded that if the owner really needs to put the property in the car, it should also be hidden in a hidden place and not exposed as much as possible.
Check whether the door is locked.
Many car owners have the habit of locking the car by remote control and then turning around and leaving. But now there is an "artifact" that can interfere with the signal of the key. Although you have the action of locking the car, the car is not locked. Because the operation is hidden, it is difficult to be found by the owner, and the success rate of committing the crime is relatively high. Moreover, the vehicle has no damage after committing the crime, and the owner often finds the loss of the item after a period of time, which is very concealed. Therefore, remind the owner that after pressing the remote control, it is best to pull the door handle by hand to make sure that the doors are locked before leaving.
Temporary parking also requires closing the door and locking the car.
"On the main road, if you want to get off temporarily, please be sure to close the window and lock the door." Master Zhou said that this is indeed a little inconvenient, but we should not let the thief have a chance to take advantage of it. Don’t be lucky enough to get off the bus in a short time. In case the whole vehicle is stolen, if it is equipped with safety positioning function, it will help to find the lost vehicle, otherwise it will suffer heavy losses.
The trunk is not a safe.
Tidy up the trunk before going home for the New Year. The trunk is not a safe, so you can’t put valuables, such as laptops and private money. Even if gift boxes and cartons are empty, don’t put them in the trunk, which is also a temptation. Because the trunk is easier to pry open.
