Keep Your Car Safe: 5 Important Items That Attract Thieves (Hide Them!)

Parking location

Did you know that one thing that attracts thieves more to your car is the place you park it? Potential robbers will find it easier to target you if you park in your driveway or on the street.

Studies say roughly 30% of vehicles are stolen off the road, compared to only 1% of automobiles taken from garages. As you can tell, the garage is the safest place to park your automobile, but make sure you lock it every time.

Unfortunately, not everyone has access to a garage or driveway, particularly city dwellers. If parking on the street is your only option, be careful to lock your vehicle, park in a well-lit place, and bring everything you need inside.
