Community Engagement and Vigilance
Hence, it is upon the individual to be alert about any suspicious movement or marking around vehicles. However, this type of crime can also be prevented through community building. Local neighborhoods can organize watch groups where activities reported suspicious are reported and encourage people to advise one another of potential dangers.
The greater the engagement of a community, the more difficult it is for would-be thieves to find unsuspecting drivers. If you see something that looks out of the ordinary, such as a mark on a windshield or an odd-looking person milling about, alert others in the vicinity. In the process, you might just prevent a crime from occurring.
You may join or start a local crime-watch program to complete your efforts for the enhancement of safety in your community. Working together to share information and support one another creates a stronger, safer environment for everyone.
