  • Lock all doors and close windows before driving off.
  • Try to vary your route to places you visit regularly.
  • Ensure all your mirrors are adjusted to give you an optimal all-round view of your surroundings.
  • Try to stop about 5m behind the car in front of you at a stop sign or traffic light it makes for an easier getaway if trouble arises.

Dont be fooled by:

  • False appeals for help.
  • Accidents such as having you car rammed from behind.
  • Someone trying to get help from a stationary car.
  • Your electric gates being jammed
  Prevent Hijacking When Parking Your Vehicle:
  • Check your rear-view mirror to ensure that you are not being followed.
  • When returning home after dark, ensure that there is an outside light on or have someone meet you at the door.
  • When exiting your vehicle, be cautious and aware of anything that may be concealing a hijacker.
  • Never sit in your parked car without being conscious of your surroundings. Sleeping in a stationery vehicle is particularly dangerous.
