No matter the heat, a cool car isn’t worth a stolen one. Too many cars are left idling in driveways or in front of stores. The AC can wait. In the past, Pennsylvania saw an uptick in vehicle crime in the hotter months. We all want a cool ride, but don’t put yourself at risk by leaving your car running and unlocked to let the AC run.

Remember:

• Never leave your car running and unattended. 
• Use remote start if available for your vehicle.
• Turn it off, lock up, and take the keys. Every time.

It only takes 30 seconds for thieves to steal an idling car. Don’t make it easy. Lock your car, take your keys, every time.
