- Don’t make your belongings visible in the car. Hide or take with you any item that might attract other people’s attention.
- If you can, always park in a busy, well-lit area and if possible leave your car within the CCTV lens, if there is any. Alternatively, look for car parks that are approved by the Police or government.
