an easy way to get your car stolen leave the keys in it with the door unlocked of the more than 600000 cars stolen in the united states last year more than hair the owners obligingly assisted the thieves in this manner and 80 percent of all stolen cars were left unlocked by their owners sixty percent of the cars stolen were used in holdups and other crimes the thieves simply looked into parked cars until they came across one that was unlocked with the keys in it they had then to only get in it and drive away the fbi estimated that car thefts could be cut in half if motorists would lock their car and take the keys with them even if they are going to be absent only a short time in communities where lockyoucar drives have been put on car thefts have been reduced up to 40 percent even though your car is insured against theft you cannot escape the inconvenience since it costs the insuiance companies an average 200 in recovery costs in cases when the car is found and replacement cost in nonrecovery the motorist is eventually pay ing the full cost in his premium rate now at the highest level in history heres another interesting statistic if you think youll get your stolen car back in the same shape as you left it the percentage of stolen cars involved in accidents is 200 times greater than for nonstolen cars do your part and lock up morkhom chrysler dodge no 7 hwy laidlaw blvd
