AUTO THEFT PREVENTION- Don’t Leave Your Car Running Unattended


Here is a reminder to stay with your vehicle if the engine is running. With the cold weather, many people like to run the engine to warm up the car or truck while they get ready in the morning to go to work. This gives a car thief a great opportunity to steal your vehicle.

Many vehicles are stolen when they are being warmed up on a cold morning. Other common car theft scenarios include when a driver keeps their engine running while they make a “quick” run into a convenience store, gas station, or ATM.

Don’t make it easy for a car thief. Shut off the engine (and lock your vehicle) if you are going to be away from your vehicle.
