Peel police have shared helpful tips to prevent individuals from falling victim to auto thefts:<\/p>\n
if possible, park your vehicle in a locked garage, as the majority of the vehicles have been stolen from driveways.
\nuse a steering wheel lock. It will also act as a visible deterrent.
\ninstall a lock on the data port. This simple device can be purchased online and blocks access to the computer port where thieves gain access to reprogram the vehicle\u2019s keys.
\nconsider purchasing a quality video surveillance system. Ensure cameras are properly placed and functioning for day and night use. Familiarize yourself with the system so it can be reviewed and accessed immediately.<\/p>\n
