Valuables left in your vehicle? –
Like to show off your stuff? Thieves like you to
With the nice weather and the urge to go for long walks in beauty spots nearly upon us don’t get distracted and allow yourself to become a victim of vehicle crime.
To help prevent this do not leave any valuables on show that may tempt criminals to take an active interest in your vehicle and want what you left on display.
Remember to remove valuables from your vehicle and enjoy the weather.
