Tip of the Week: Never Secure High Valued Items In Your Vehicle

Your vehicle is never a secure way of storing high value items.Glass breaks easily, and many vehicles allow access to the trunk through the passenger compartment.If you are going to leave your vehicle unattended, take your high value items with you.Leaving cell phones, laptop computers, purses, etc inside a vehicle where they are easily seen is an invitation to a thief to smash your windows and take your property.
