Recent research by car insurance specialist, elephant.co.uk has revealed that although for most of the working population the weekend is a period of rest..... The same cannot be said for car thieves who are at their most active then. The research shows the day of the week most cars are stolen is a Saturday, while the day most items are taken from a car is a Sunday. Elephant.co.uk looked at 45,000 theft claims over the last five years to see on which day most car crime took place. While Saturday was the most popular day for vehicle theft claims, it was closely followed by Friday, Thursay and Monday. Most modern cars are actually very difficult to steal unless you have the vehicle keys and therefore thieves will target you home in order to get your keys. To prevent this you should never leave your keys in a place that would be easily found. While sleeping you should take all your sets of car keys into your bedroom as its not common for thieves to enter the room where you are asleep. |
