Reminder for when defrosting vehicles.

We’re urging people not to leave their vehicles unattended while defrosting following a recent spike in thefts across Staffordshire in the past month. Please make sure you stay with your vehicles at all times when they’re defrosting or running. Even if it means you’re going to be slightly late, it is better than having your vehicle stolen. Insurance companies likely won’t pay out if vehicles are stolen while they’re left running with the keys inside. Please allow for extra time in the morning before setting off to make sure your vehicle is fully defrosted. To report a theft, call 101 or use Live Chat on our website. Always call 999 in an emergency.
