We’ve seen a rise in car thefts in Hastings recently, with Mazda Demios in particular being targeted. We just wanted you all to be aware, and share some things that you can do help reduce this kind of offending:

• Lock and secure your vehicle every time you leave it. Even if you’re not far away. If you have an alarm, always activate it whenever you leave your vehicle.
• Never leave your keys in the ignition – even if you’re just hopping out for a minute.
• Whenever possible, park in well lit, high traffic areas.
• Any extra steps you can take, such as a steering wheel lock or a small flashing light to mimic an immobiliser, will help deter thieves.

No matter what kind of vehicle you own, these tips are useful to keep in mind.
