Speedy Glass tips on how to protect your car

Break-ins are responsible for much of the auto glass repair and replacement in the United States. Motor vehicle theft, and the theft of property from motor vehicles, is increasing at a rate of 14% per year. Everyone's vehicle is at risk, and vehicles are stolen wherever and whenever the opportunity presents itself. Safety precautions you can take to protect your vehicle:

• When possible, park in a well lit area.
• Don't leave personal identification in the car.
• Keep all valuables locked in the trunk and out of view.
• Never leave your car running and unattended, not even for a minute.
• Never leave your car unlocked.
• Mark the more expensive parts on your car with an engraving tool. Thieves hate parts that can be traced.
• If possible, don't leave your keys with others. They can be stolen or copied.
• Leave your spare keys somewhere outside the car.
