“Don’t be a Victim”

Please remember to LOCK IT, HIDE IT, KEEP IT.

  • Park as close as you can to your destination and take notice of where your parked.
  • Never leave your car unoccupied with the motor running or with children inside.

  • Be sure to locate your keys prior to going to your car.
  • Keep a secure hold on your purse, handbag and parcels. Do not put them down or on top of the car in order to open the door.
  • When approaching or leaving your vehicle, be aware of your surroundings.
  • Do not approach your car alone if there are suspicious people in the area.
  • Ask mall or store security for an escort before leaving your shopping location.
