Car thefts are on the rise again: here are the keys to avoiding them. Avoid parking in dark corners and choose busy, lit streets.

Certified anti-theft devices or steering wheel locks can also help. More and more motorists are opting for the GPS tracker, hidden in the vehicle. If the car is not immediately transferred abroad, the police will then be able to easily find it. The operation, accessible between 80 and 100 euros, makes identification easier after a theft. It's up to you to decide if it's worth the investment.
