Vehicle Safety

Join the Northville Township Police Department's Partners in Your Safety initiative and let's make our neighborhoods safer together! Here are some top-notch tips to keep your cars and trucks secure:

• Keep windows closed and doors locked at all times.
• Never leave keys inside your vehicle.
• If available, activate your alarm system.
• Don't tempt thieves! Remove valuables from sight or lock them in the trunk. Say goodbye to wallets, phones, laptops, and handbags in plain view.
• Choose well-lit parking spots. Consider adding motion-sensitive lights at home.
• When out and about, stow valuables in the trunk and lock all windows and doors.
• Avoid street parking whenever possible.
• Clear out shrubbery around your property to eliminate hiding spots.
• Be vigilant! Report any suspicious activity immediately.

In the unfortunate event of a vehicle break-in, be prepared. Keep your registration info and a detailed list of stolen items, including serial numbers, handy for the police. Don't wait—report the crime promptly to preserve crucial evidence.
