Don't give thieves an easy ride!
POLICE are urging motorists to remove all valuables from their vehicles and to think about the security of their vehicles when preparing to leave them unattended.
The warning has been sparked following a number of incidents reported in the West Hull villages over the last month.
Valuable items such as satellite navigation systems (sat navs) and handbags are popular among thieves as a vehicle can be broken into in a matter of seconds and such items snatched before the broken glass has settled.
It is vital that valuables are removed, or kept well out of sight of prying eyes and cars are left secure.
Inspector Andy Woodhead said: "We are urging motorists to make sure they remove all valuable items and any clues, such as sat nav brackets and holders from their vehicles when leaving them unattended - the slightest temptation can be enough for a thief to break into your car or van.
"We are asking motorists to work with us to ensure that we don’t give thieves an easy ride.”
Police are offering the following crime prevention advice to motorists:
* Always keep your car doors, windows and sunroof locked when you leave the vehicle, even if you only leave it for a few minutes
* Never leave property of any kind on view. Items particularly attractive to car thieves are: SatNav’s, mobile phones, laptop computers, bank cards and cash
* If you have a SatNav, remember to remove suction pads, and wipe away any tell-tale marks as thieves will look out for these
* Don't leave anything in your car, particularly when it is parked overnight. Even an old coat on the back seat is a temptation for someone to ‘smash and grab’
* During the day hide items you cannot take with you in the boot
* Don’t park vehicles were they are hidden from view; where possible park in a car park with an attendant or CCTV, garage or in a well-lit open place
Anyone who may have information about the vehicle crimes are asked to contact Humberside Police on 0845 60 60 222, or alternatively contact Crimestoppers anonymously on
0800 555 111.
