- Whenever you drive, lock all of your doors and windows, and never open your car windows or doors for strangers.
- Avoid talking to street merchants or anybody passing out fliers by opening your windows or engaging in conversations with them.
- Always be on the watch for characters that appear to be suspicious.
- Always be mindful especially when approaching a crossroads or halting your automobile.
- People standing at intersections should be avoided — they may appear to be harmless, but offenders mingle among them while waiting for a chance to strike.
- If it’s late at night, slow down far before the junction so that the light becomes green by the time you arrive.
- Allow enough space between you and the automobile in front of you to allow you to flee (i.e. drive away from the situation) if something goes wrong.
- Whenever you see broken glass on the road, be especially cautious. If the shards of glass are still strewn across the road, it was most likely a recent smash-and-grab.
Safeguard your nearest and dearest!
Smash and Grab Window Film Protective tinting protects against shattered glass and glass shards in the event of an accident and a “smash and grab” attack by functioning as an unseen barrier that inhibits entry to the vehicle. The tint functions as a vehicle sunscreen, blocking damaging UV rays and preventing interior deterioration. It keeps thieves from smashing your vehicle’s windows and stealing your stuff after they’ve been destroyed. The film thickness for smash and grab begins at 100 micrometres or “microns.”
At Fuzion Pre-owned, we have a window tinting assortment that includes a variety of hues to suit any taste. All of our installations use tried-and-true smash-and-grab window film and are backed by a workmanship warranty.
Prevention
Although avoiding the so-called “hotspots” where these criminals prey on innocent motorists is not always practicable, it is feasible to lessen the danger of becoming a smash-and-grab victim. These break-ins might be made more difficult by motorists. When they suspect obstacles to the quick execution of their plan, smash-and-grab automobile robbers prefer to go on rather than face significant issues.
