问题    To avoid car thefts, you must apply your street sense. Sometimes people don’t realize how effective simple measures can be. And even when they know what to do, they don’t always bother to do it, or they let their guard down. Here are a few reminders:
   Park in a well-lit area. Thieves prefer to work unobserved in the dark. Parking in a well-lit area, or at least under a streetlight, helps protect your car, and you, too.
   Remove keys. Car thieves are always looking for the most common mistake made by motorists—leaving their keys in the ignition. This happens often in front of ATMs, convenience stores, and homes.
   Never hide second keys on the car. If you feel more comfortable having a second key handy, carry it in your wallet or purse.
   Lock all doors. It takes an experienced car thief less than 40 seconds to hotwire a car. If a door is unlocked, nothing stands between the thief and stealing your car.
   Close windows. A locked door isn’t locked for long if a window is open.
   Valuables. Don’t leave valuables in plain view. This includes coins, CDs, leather jackets, and briefcases. If a thief breaks in to steal a cell phone or laptop computer, he or she may decide to take the car, too.
   Garage. If you have a garage, park in it, and lock both the garage and the car doors.
                     How to Prevent Car Theft
