Dear Residents Core Vehicle Safety Advice Choose Busy Streets: It is often worth a five-minute extra walk to park on a busier, better-lit street rather than a dark, secluded one. Double-Check the Lock: Electronic "jamming" devices can block your key fob signal. Always manually check the handle to ensure it’s locked before walking away. Visible Deterrents: Even in a lit area, use a Thatcham-approved steering lock to discourage thieves from even trying to enter. Home Driveway Security: If you park on your drive, consider installing motion-activated LED security lights or CCTV to extend that "well-lit" protection to your own property. - Anti-Pavement Parking: Ensure your well-lit spot doesn't obstruct the pavement, or you may face a fine or seizure.
