     A million motorists leave their cars filled up with petrol and with the keys in the ignition (点燃) every day.
The cars are sitting in petrol stations while drivers pay for their fuel. The Automobile Association(A.A) has
discovered that cars are left unattended for an average three minutes and sometimes longer as drivers buy
drinks sweets cigarettes and other consumer items.With payment of credit cards becoming more and more
common it is not unusual for a driver to be out of his car for as long as six minutes providing the car theft
with a golden opportunity.

of more than two cars a minute are broken into or stolen in the UK. Car crime accounts for almost a third of
all reported offenses with no signs that the trend is slowing down.
     Although there are highly professional criminal involved in car theft almost 90 percent of car theft is
committed by the opportunists . Amateur thieves are aided by our own carelessness. The A.A. recommends
