CAR THEFT- Cold Weather Danger

It has turned cold. We have already been through freezing weather and a few days of snow. Some drivers may be tempted to start the car up and let it warm up while they finish getting ready for the day. DON’T DO IT!!!


Each winter local police agencies receive reports of stolen vehicles that were warming up in driveways. Any time the keys to your car or truck are in it, with it warming up or not, and you are not around, only gives a car thief an opportunity to steal your car.

The best way to prevent car theft is to take away the opportunity by:

• Taking your keys with you

• Locking your car doors

• Not leaving anything visible in your car
