When leaving your car, how do you secure it against unauthorised use?

To secure your car against unauthorized use when leaving it, it's essential to lock the doors and close the windows. According to German traffic regulations, these actions are crucial to prevent theft and ensure safety. Locking the doors makes it difficult for intruders to enter the vehicle, while closing the windows prevents access and reduces the risk of theft of items left inside.

While activating the child-safety lock is beneficial for child safety, it does not directly affect the security of the vehicle against unauthorized access when you leave it. Therefore, focusing on locking the doors and closing the windows is the key to securing your vehicle effectively.
