London police are stepping up their game against car thieves with a new initiative that’s already making waves across the city.

The London Police Service recently introduced #ProjectSafeAuto, a focused campaign aimed at combating the rising issue of auto theft in our community.

If you’ve noticed an uptick in car thefts lately, you’re not alone. The LPS is now working “hard to combat auto theft and ensure safety” throughout London as part of this new project.

The police are sharing practical tips with residents on how to protect their vehicles from being targeted by thieves. These resources can be found on the official London Police Service website under their crime prevention section.

For those looking to beef up their car security game, the police have created a dedicated page where you can learn how to defend your vehicle against potential thieves.

In their recent social media posts, the LPS emphasized the importance of community involvement in tackling this issue, encouraging residents to visit their website for protection tips and to call 9-1-1 if they witness a car theft in progress.

The police have been actively promoting this initiative through their Twitter account @lpsmediaoffice since early April, urging Londoners to “join in the fight against auto theft.”

Along with Project Safe Auto, the police website also offers information on other crime prevention initiatives including bike registry through 529 Garage, cannabis FAQs, and various safety tips for different situations.
