A few precautions can make the difference between having your car stolen or having the “bad guys” look at someone else to commit the crime.

If you do not want to feel the chill of going to pick up your car and see that it is not waiting where you left it parked, you have room to maneuver to make it a little harder for car thieves. None of the tricks that we put you below is a guarantee of success. No. If you want to take your car, they will take it sooner or later. And is that if hackers have attacked the American FBI, and thieves stole the Mona Lisa from the Louvre Museum. How can they not do it with a car? But if we force extra annoyances on the thieves, of those that make them lose a couple of minutes each, we can make the difference between the stolen car being ours or another. You just have to follow these ten tips.

1. DO NOT PARK YOUR CAR IN POORLY LIT AND POORLY LIT PLACES

Those thieves like to operate quietly. If you park your car in an open field or in the door of an isolated chalet, in a sparsely urbanized area, you are unknowingly giving them the perfect setting to make them feel at home. So, look for your car is not the only one on the street. There will be more transit of people. It increases car stolen rate. Continue Reading – 10 Essentials for a Road Trip Abroad

2.PARKING ONLINE CAN BE SAFER

Online parking is safer than perpendicular to the sidewalk and much more than one battery. In line, one car after the other, the bad guys will be more visible to the eyes of a police patrol doing their job to have these better angle of vision and not be hidden by cars.

3.USE YOUR GARAGE SPACE IF YOU HAVE IT

A garage not only represents a physical barrier to be overcome. But also your car is less exposed to the unwanted looks that can trigger an unplanned theft. In addition, it will be more protected from the weather. You will not get wet on a rainy day, nor will you stay frozen in winter or suffocated in summer.

4.YOU HAVE THE COMMAND

Do not leave the control of the garage in the car. If you live in a chalet, the control of the garage is a direct entry to your home and in case it was stolen – it would be enough to break a moon in your car – the thieves will be able to campaign at their leisure as long as they want. Not only will they have time to steal your car, but any valuable item.

5.RECORD YOUR CAR’S LICENSE PLATE ON THE WINDOWS

It is a deterrent measure, not definitive if the object of the robbery is the moon landing or the sale by pieces. but it is going to bother you if you tried to steal to sell that car. It is quite economical, about 30 euros and for that price, you can do the work on the windshield, rear window, and four windows.

6.THE ANTI-THEFT BAR, ALWAYS

An anti-theft bar at the wheel is another cheap, easy-to-use measure that will only take a few seconds to put it on and off it every time. The safest antitheft are those that hug the steering wheel blocking it against the dashboard. And although most can be neutralized in a few minutes, it is time in which thieves are at risk of being discovered and in many cases will prefer to go to the next car that does not have this device installed. If it was one that gets caught in the pedals, remember to use the clutch, and in the automatic the brake. It is the basis for driving and without stepping on it much of modern cars will not start. The material that is made will mark its resistance to the cut, even with a radial.  Car stolen is impossible.

7.MOUNT A GPS LOCATOR

You can not only have information on the whereabouts of your car, or your last locatable whereabouts if it were hidden in an underground garage or place without coverage. This information will be available both in the necessary web application and in the most exclusive variants provided by companies in the security sector (basic cost about 20 euros per month), to a control center that could block the car remotely. Some even act as an alarm and mechanism that prevents the start and many mark the speed and routes made, which can serve to claim a state of discharge in the event of a fine for speed attributed by mistake or a duplicate number plate. Those not linked to security companies can cost from 50 to 250 euros.

8.AN ALARM RINGING ALWAYS ATTRACTS ATTENTION

By itself, it can put in flight to the undesirable ones before the certainty of a call to the police. The easiest thing would be to assemble it at home when you go to buy your new car, but the aftermarket is full of after-sales options. Both official points and spare parts stores can install them. The safest are volumetric and can detect car lifting function that would warn that the car has been hoisted on a platform and is moving without the wheels are spinning.

9.IF THERE IS NO BATTERY, THE CAR WILL NOT START

That’s for sure. But how to remove and put the battery and upload it home every time you leave the car does not seem an operational solution, you can install a battery disconnect that prevents the start-up of that car, which will also protect it from accidental discharge. Connecting and disconnecting it is not an immediate process, of those that occur at the touch of a button, and can be cumbersome in cars that are used daily, but perfect for occasional use, such as those sports greedy cars, collectibles or of races that may be in an unattended industrial warehouse for several days. In addition to those that are located in the engine compartment, there are also interiors, which you could take to place somewhere easily accessible as the glove box.

10.BE CAREFUL WITH THE REMOTE CONTROL

If your car is the keyless access and start or just a remote control, be careful to display your key as if it were the control of the television. Information arrived at the newsroom of Autopista.es warns of the use of inhibitors by thieves who ensure that the car that is the target of their tracking remains open, guaranteeing access to the interior and thus being easier to start up. So, make sure that when you leave the car it is closed (you’ll have it easier if your car has automatic mirror folding). Solutions, like putting your key in the freezer or isolating it in aluminum foil, do not seem like the best options. Most car stolen by remote control hack.
