A reminder for this coming Saturday!
TURNING THE SCREWS ON CRIME
In the Coomera Police
District there has been a large quantity of Number Plates stolen from
vehicles.
Some of the stolen number plates are being used to evade
identification in various crimes such as stealing of petrol and robbery or to
avoid paying tolls. When a number plate is stolen it can quite often result in
great inconvenience to the victim, such as: reporting the matter to the police;
the possible numerous statutory declarations and letters to explain that it was
not your vehicle involved when the stolen plate is photographed on a speeding
vehicle or going through a toll booth.
CRIME PREVENTION
INITIATIVE - FREE OF CHARGE
As part of our crime prevention
initiative we[police] are offering to supply and fit FREE of charge, one way screws to
secure number plates of patrons' vehicles. When this type of screw is fitted it
makes the removal of the number plate very difficult, deterring the theft of
that number plate.
