Questions 12- 15:

Advice to motorists

A: Always lock your car and never leave your keys in the car. Sounds obvious, but how often have you left your car unlocked while you paid for fuel at a service station or dashed into a shop? A recently-passed law will ensure that you never forget again – heavy penalties apply.

B: Always lock valuables in the boot. Most car crime is opportunistic, so don’t make it easy. And if something is too valuable to lose, the golden rule is 'take it with you'.

C: Thieves need little incentive. A lot of thefts from cars are carried out by youngsters after nothing more than a few dollars, so don’t leave coin-holders if they can be seen from outside. The cost of repairs often far outweighs the value of what is stolen.

D: At night, always try to park in a brightly-lit area where your vehicle can be seen by passers-by. Poorly-lit streets are the thief’s favourite hunting ground.

E: Never park where you can see broken glass from car windows on the ground. Thieves are creatures of habit and will return to the scene of past successes.

F: Install a car alarm.

G: Where available, use car parks that are well lit and have boom gates. Don’t leave your parking ticket in the car.

H: In high-risk areas leave your glove box and ashtray open to show thieves that there is nothing in the car worth stealing.

I: Don’t buy goods offered for sale if the price seems suspiciously low. Chances are the goods have been stolen.

Cheap and free? How come they both are the same? Why the answer to question 9 is 317 and not 114? Can anyone explain? Thanks.
Jetha lal
Information for questions 7-11 are not well organized and take too much time in understanding the layout. Once you understand it, finding answers would be quick.
Amber
Confuse is "free", consider cheapest?
