Having your vehicle stolen can be extremely upsetting and have a major impact on your daily routine – getting to work, dropping the kids off at school or running a business. Car Key burglaries account for just under 10% of burglaries in West Yorkshire and some of the makes and models stolen include VW Golf, Vauxhall Astra, Ford Focus, Ford Fiesta, Audi A3 and Vauxhall Corsa. The vehicles stolen may end up getting written off, used in other criminal offences, sold on or broken down for parts.
Cycles are a popular target for thieves because they can so easily be stolen and sold on - find out how to keep yours safe and secure.
People contacting West Yorkshire Police for assistance are getting a helping hand from some web-based software. GoodSAM was initially adopted by the force to assist with 999 and 101 calls back in January 2021. With the caller’s consent it allowed our call takers to access the caller’s phone’s camera function, so live video and the caller’s location could be shared from their device. This assisted with determining response measures.
Vehicles are usually the second biggest investment that you will make after your home, so it is vital that you make sure they are as secure as possible. Follow our advice to keep your car, motorbike, or other vehicle safe and secure to minimise the risk of it being stolen.
