Auto Safety Tips

Thieves often move from location to location.
Practice these tips at all times to protect yourself from potential thefts on and off campus


Tip 1. Do not leave anything of value visible in your vehicle.
Place items such as phone chargers, cellphones, and purses in the glove compartment or in the trunk. These items are “targets of opportunity” for thieves.

Tip 2. Always lock your doors and completely close your windows.
Thieves will check door handles to see if anyone forgot to lock their doors.

Tip 3. Do not leave cash visible in your vehicle.

Tip 4. Park in a well-lit area.
