Who’s Driving Your Car?

Jul 07, 2003

Auto theft continues to be a problem in Phoenix. Do your part to reduce the risk by taking a few simple steps.

* Lock your car.
* Take your keys when you are not in your vehicle.
* Park in well-lighted areas, in attended lots if possible. If you have a garage at home, use it.
* Don?’t leave your car running while you run into the store or to the ATM.
* Do not leave valuables in sight.
* Use car alarms, steering wheel locks or steering column locks.
* Sign up for the Watch Your Car program.

The Watch Your Car program is administered by the Arizona Automobile Theft Authority. Here?’s how it works:
When you register for the program and put a decal on your windshield, you are, in effect, asking police officers to stop the vehicle to verify ownership. Police officers will only stop the vehicle if they see it driven between 1 and 5 a.m.; the only exception is that an officer could stop the vehicle at any time if it is seen within one mile of the border with Mexico. To sign up for the program or get more information call (602) 604-9034 or sign up online by visiting www.azwatchyourcar.com on the Internet.
