stay ALERT!

Although car wash centers are often crowded with customers waiting around, Don't assume that your car is safe from preying THIEVES .

Here are some precautionary Anti-theft tips:

1) Pass ONLY the car key

The car wash attendant doesn't need your house key or office key to wash your car. If you don't remove them, he will have the opportunity to duplicate the keys and break in to your house or office after tailing you.

2) Make eye Contact

Make your presence known for the attendant to recongnise you as the rightful owner to your car. Look the guy in the face when handling him your key and if he's not paying attention, ask questions to get his attention.

3) Create a scene.

When you realise a suspicious-looking person is attempting to steal your car, yell and scream to get others attention to either run or look toward you and your car. You'll need all the witnessess you can get if the theif manages to take off with your car.

4) Record it.

In the event of an attempted theft try to get the theif's full face or full body shot for identification with your camera phone. Set shortcuts to the camera function that allows you quicker access to it.

5) Get a date.
Get a friend to accompany you to the car wash centre.

she can at least help you make a call to the police or be an extra pair of eyes to get detailed description of the theft.

6) Don't take risk.


The theft may be armed so wrestling with him is not really a good option. Use a pepper spary instead and keep your distance so he can't grab and hurt you.
