Vacation Check
Vacation is a time for fun and relaxation. Don't let yours be ruined by crime. Before leaving your home, follow the following tips:
- Have good locks on the doors and windows, and USE THEM!
- Engrave your valuables with your California driver's license number (Preceded by CA) and post "Operation ID" stickers in entry doors and windows.
- Never leave your house key hidden outside under a doormat, in a flower pot or on the ledge of a door.
- Make sure your house appears "Lived in." Use timers for lights and radios. Have a neighbor or friend pick up mail, packages and newspapers. Keep the lawn mowed and watered.
- Leave trip plans and an emergency phone number with trusted neighbors or friends.
