Driving Advice

Car parks

• Particularly after dark, always park in a well-lit, busy location
• If you are parking during the day time, but won't be returning to your car until after dark, make sure that you consider whether your chosen place will be safe at night time
• It is also a good idea to choose a car park with an attendant whenever possible
• Always reverse into the space to allow for a quicker exit
• Make a note of exactly where you've parked, so you don't get lost going back to your car
• Ensure that your interior light is working
• Have your keys ready when you return to the car, so that you can get in straight away
• Double-check that there is no-one else in the car before you get in
• Once you are in the car, lock the doors immediately and drive off straight away
