Motoring was a luxury hobby in 1900. The number of cars on the roads began to rise during the 1920s as manufacturers started to make small, lightweight and cheaper vehicles for a wider market. Driving licences issued to London addresses rose from 100,000 in 1920 to 261,000 in 1930. As the number of cars on London's streets steadily increased, so did the number of road accidents. By the 1920s, an average of three people a day died in London as a result of traffic accidents. The 1920s saw the first traffic-control measures appearing in central London in the form of manually operated traffic lights and white line road markings. In fact, the average household spends almost as much on their cars as they do on food and health care combined for their entire family
Since all households have only a limited amount of income, the amount a household spends on its car(s) is lost money they could have spent on other worthwhile expenditures, like saving for retirement, education, or the purchase of a home. So,the question is "What Happens when the car gets stolen?" and there is still mortgage to be balanced and the premium is not yet mature in case of insured vehicles?
Here are a few tips to protect your car from being stolen.
- Always keep out valuables from your car.
- Make sure you park your car in a very open space with a very good parking space
- Always lock up every door and wind up every door
- Make use of your brake locks and clutch locks
- Don't stop abruptly in the middle of no where unnecessarily
