Electric police cars in the UK: exclusive survey plots forces\u2019 EV uptake<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nNextbase, which says a lack of video evidence is one of the reasons police can\u2019t find the villains concerned, also commissioned a survey of 2,000 British drivers to determine what sort of security measures are being adopted in the face of rising levels of car crime.<\/p>\n
51 per cent of respondents say they rely on a car alarm, while 25 per cent say they always park their car where they can see it. 23 per cent keep their key fob away from windows and doors while at home, in order to prevent remote theft, while 17 per cent of drivers claim to have a dash cam. Six per cent of drivers say they don\u2019t take any particular measures to keep their cars safe.<\/p>\n
Nextbase is highlighting the lack of effective policing around car theft and related crime in order to promote its new generation of products that work like video doorbells, recording footage of anyone breaking into or tampering with your car, and immediately backing it up online.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the first time this kind of technology has made it to dash cams, allowing anybody to protect their vehicle with the kind of security homes have recently gained,\u201d says Nextbase spokesman Bryn Brooker. \u201cEventually this kind of technology will make stealing a car unviable. For now, it will help police track down more of these criminals and stop these thefts from happening in the first place.\u201d<\/p>\n
