We must remember that burglars very often choose cars in which valuable items have been left in visible places. Laptops, cameras, navigation devices and mobile phones left in plain sight are tempting targets for thieves.
Leaving documents behind is also a serious mistake, including the vehicle registration certificate, the compulsory third-party liability insurance policy and the identity card. In the event of vehicle theft, this significantly facilitates the potential thief's ability to drive or sell the stolen car. In addition, we risk having our personal data used for criminal purposes.
If you see strangers walking around the neighborhood and looking into parked vehicles, call the police. Thieves become active during the hours when most of us are at work or at night. You do not have to provide your personal details. Inform police officers about what you have observed.
