Lock
your car doors at all times, even when you are inside the car.
Do not approach your car if there
are strangers loitering around it.
When
approaching your car, check for hidden/blind spots around the
car to make sure no one is hiding behind it.
Once inside your car, lock the
doors immediately. Do not wait till you start the engine.
Do not park in dimly lit areas.
Remove your cash card and any
other items (bags, notebook, mobile phone etc) that will be of interest to the thieves. These items will only
give additional incentive to the thieves to steal your car.
Lock you car
boot and glove compartment. Make
sure your car doors are locked before you walk away from it.
When
someone intentionally hits your car, drive to the nearest
police station to settle the case.
If someone signal to you that
your car tire is flat etc, do not stop and get
down from your car to check. Drive to the nearest petrol
station or somewhere safe to inspect the fault.
Try to
avoid driving along the North South Highway at night or
early in the morning when it is still dark.
If you
are being car-jacked, do not resist. Let the car thieves have your
car. Your life is more important!!
