Do you have any useful tips for securing a road vehicle against theft?

Bard:

Sure, here are some useful tips for securing a road vehicle against theft:

    Always lock your car, even when you're just running into a store for a few minutes. Thieves are opportunistic, and they'll take advantage of any opportunity to steal a car.
    Park in well-lit areas, and avoid parking in secluded spots. If you have to park in a dark area, try to park near other cars or buildings.
    Don't leave anything valuable in your car, even if it's just out of sight. Thieves can see through windows, and they'll take anything they think they can sell.
    Invest in a steering wheel lock or other anti-theft device. These devices can make your car more difficult to steal, and they may deter thieves altogether.
    Etch your car's VIN number into your windows. This will make it more difficult for thieves to sell your car if they do manage to steal it.
    Be aware of your surroundings. If you see someone acting suspiciously around your car, don't hesitate to call the police.

Here are some additional tips that you may find helpful:

    Turn your wheels into the curb when you park. This will make it more difficult for thieves to tow your car.
    Secure anything that's on the outside of your car, such as a roof rack or bike rack. Use a cable lock or other security device to keep these items from being stolen.
    Secure your number plates with tamper-resistant screws. This will make it more difficult for thieves to change your number plates.
    Update your car's software regularly. Many new cars come with software that can be updated to improve security.
    Be aware of the latest car theft trends. Thieves are constantly coming up with new ways to steal cars, so it's important to stay informed about the latest trends.

By following these tips, you can help to reduce the risk of your car being stolen.
