4 Hacks That Can Save Your Car

You are probably aware of GPS-trackers, steering lockers, and other standard anti-theft items if you own a car. But in order to be ready for anything, it’s better to learn about the additional protection available to make your car less attractive to thieves. It’s useful to know the typical methods of 4 and to be able to recognize the signs that someone is planning to steal your car.
#Mark the glass.**

Windshields, windows, and mirrors can be marked with a VIN number, also known as the identification number of the vehicle.

This service doesn’t cost much and decreases the risk of theft significantly. A malefactor will have to spend time and money to change the marked glass. It decreases the profit of a theft.
#Keep your wheels turned toward the curb when parked.#

Policemen recommend keeping wheels turned toward the curb wherever your park. It will complicate the auto towing for those who steal cars with a tow truck.

In order to steal a car, a criminal will have to make additional maneuvers — all this will take time and therefore, decrease their interest in the car.

#Remember the typical schemes of theft#

A small accident: The task is to distract the driver and steal the car while the driver is in shock. For this purpose, a malefactor slightly bumps into a victim’s car without doing too much harm.

That’s why if you bump into someone’s car or someone bumps into your car, you shouldn’t lose your awareness: close the windows, lock the car doors, and call the police. Don’t leave the car doors wide open and control your emotions.

This is how it looks:
Distracting attention: A piece of paper stuck to the rearview window, a can tied to the silencer, or a plastic bottle over the wheel, are all small things that can entice the driver to get out of the car.

These things can also be used against you when a criminal pretends to “do something kind for you”. For example, they may stop to show you that there is something under the car like in this clip:
#Don’t make things easy for a thief.

According to statistics, cars are most often stolen from public parking lots, gas stations, crossroads or near ATMs. The police recommend the following:

Look inside and under the car before sitting in it.
Don’t travel alone especially at night.
Trust your instincts — if you feel that something is wrong, leave.
Drive in one of the middle lanes.
If you see that there is a suspicious person moving toward you, drive away carefully.
Don’t stop to help strangers.
If you do stop, leave some room for a maneuver.
Don’t park in a spot with bad visibility and don’t jump out of the car even if it’s just for a moment to buy something in a shop without stopping the engine. If you need to get out, always stop the engine, close the windows, and lock the doors.
