I need to know how I can keep dumb scum from breaking into my car, it has happened twice this month.?
Answers:
If there is nothing in it worth stealing, then leave it open, just to save you the cost of a lock. This used to happen to a friend of mine more regular than it has happened to you, and in the end she put a polite notice on the car window stating that the car was open, and minimum damage would be appreciated! It never got touched again. Go Figure!!!!
Wire the door handles up to the battery.
Booby traps and barbed wire
Do not recommend any explosive materials because
A) you will be arrested as a terrorist
B) you will end up with no car
Buy a very mean dog and leave it in the car during the times it was broken into
IF THERE IS NOTHING IN IT JUST LEAVE IT UNLOCKED..
Leave a big *** snake or dog inside it. Or, leave your glove box opened and empty, (eveything exposed) with nothing to steal.
Since they found your purse the first time, they may have been going for the odds that they'd find it the second time.
Leave the glove compartment open to show there's nothing there. If you do decide to leave the doors unlocked, put a Club on the steering wheel so they won't be tempted to steal the whole car.
1) When you leave your car parked somewhere, make sure the glove compartment is empty and leave it open so the scum bags can clearly see there is nothing in there.
2) Get a car alarm. The best money can buy is Clifford, and even the sticker alone will put most scum bag theives off! - You can even buy Clifford alarm stickers from Ebay: http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.d.
if Ur cars on a driveway in front of the house put up a dummy camera and one of those lights that are motion sensitive, stupid thugs will think the camera is real and soon leave Ur car alone, good luck Hun's. and the 20p in the purse ur right how hard up must u b lol.
i personally think some cars are just magnets to vandals/thieves..not sure if they are attracted to the colour or make of car or wether its just bad luck
The scum are not interested in taking the car , so why not remove all valuables & put a good steering wheel lock on & leave it unlocked.at least that way you dont keep gettin the doors/locks damaged.. trouble is tho it might void any insurance claim if it did get stolen. I used to leave my van unlocked when completely empty cos the same thing happened to me..wouldn't you just like to catch the b*stards..pass me my baseball bat someone !
dont leave anything in your car idiots like this will damage a car for no reason anyway. short of keeping an eye on your car or wiring the door handles with 100.000 volts i dont know what you can do. my heart goes out to you cos we have the same problems round here if only people had respect for other peoples property
Move Out of the Ghetto
Sell it and buy a bicycle, you will have a lot less to worry about and after a while you will feel much fitter.
sounds like kids, get a c.c.t.v. and focus it on your car then atleast if it happens again you can sue and get money back for the other 2 times, coz theyll be given t.i.c. crimes Taken Into Concideration. i.e. your crimes. its a sad pathetic world we live in chuck, hope this helps.
LEAVE THE DOORS OPEN , PUT A NOTE ON THE DASHBOARD "THIS CAR IS OPEN THERE IS NOTHING WORTH PINCHING YOU ARE WELCOME TO LOOK AROUND BUT IT WILL NOT START NO MATTER HOW YOU TRY TO HOTWIRE IT" IF THESE IDIOTS CAN READ THEN THEY DON'T HAVE TO BREAK IN
perhaps u can put a false security camera easily visable on the inside of the car with a warning under it that it is under survielance by the local authorites?
Firstly I'm so sorry that has happened to you twice , you're right they are total scum with no respect for peoples property. All you can really do is get a better alarm fitted or put a camera outside of the house to view the car and at least if that doesn't work at least you will have something on tape to give to the police., but I'm pretty sure it would put them off. You can buy the cameras pretty cheap as well and they are easy and well worth setting up. Good luck and I hope you have no more problems with your car.
i know the best thing would be to wire it up to the mains, but U really cant do that, as if someone breaks into Ur car and gets hurt, they can sue U, its a crazy world but true, don't whatever U do leave it unlocked, as U'll probably have a tramp living inti in the morning, or some drunk person peeing in it, or the opportunist who will try to steal it just cos its open.
from the sound of it someone does not like U,but try parking it in a well lite area, or under a security camera.
if someone really wants to get in Ur car there no way to stop them, but an alarm may scare them off quicker,so less damage to Ur car. U can get those fake alarm stickers, marry that up with a flashing led, and they may think twice.
a car thief will always go for the easiest car to get into, the one with no alarm etc
used to have a device called a barrier deadlock fitted to my last car, it used to lock the car into reverse. Doesnt matter what they did to it the car was going nowhere. All you could see of it inside the car was a small cylinder that used to push in when the car was put in reverse, the rest of the workings were welded to the gear rods under car.
Cost around 150 fitted.
to keep them from breaking in, keep it unlocked
wow, maybe its your friends playing a prank on you.
Unfortunately nothing can dumb scum from interfering with your car, but if you can rig the car to auto lock once they are inside they will get more than they bargained for!
when i had an older car my car got broken into twice..nothing taken as i dont leave anything in..but its the cost of a broken lock or window that you end up paying yourself due to the bone idle scum who cant be bothered to get a job and earn their money in these ways..after that i left my car open at night and it never got broken into again..just a thought
