Crime Prevention

Vehicle and Car Park Safety

When parking your car:

  • Lock it.
  • Take valuables with you.
  • If you have to leave valuables, lock them in the boot or cover them up.

When returning to your car:

  • Carry your keys ready to enter your vehicle.
  • Carry the vehicle key between your fingers so that you can ward off an attacker.
  • Before entering your vehicle look inside to ensure that no one is concealed inside.
  • Carry your bag in a way that prevents bag snatchers from getting your bag and carry it in a way that won't cause you injury if you are attacked.
