🚨 Police Safety Message: Don’t Leave Your Car Running Unattended 🚨As temperatures drop, many drivers start their vehicles and leave them running to defrost windows. Please avoid doing this. Leaving your car unattended with the engine running creates serious risks: - Vehicle Theft: Opportunistic thieves often target cars left running. It only takes seconds for your car to be stolen.
- Insurance Issues: If your car is stolen while unattended and the keys are inside, your insurance may not cover the loss.
- Legal Consequences: In some areas, leaving a vehicle running unattended can result in a fine.
What You Should Do Instead✅ Stay with your vehicle while it warms up. ✅ Use an ice scraper or de-icer spray to clear windows before driving. ✅ Never leave keys in the ignition if you’re not inside the car. ✅ Consider using a windscreen cover overnight to reduce frost build-up. |
