Screen grab from a VPD promotional video for Use It
As the number of vehicle thefts continues to increase in Vancouver the VPD announced a new initiative today aimed at reducing them.
Through their 'Use It' program they're offering free steering wheel locks to Vancouver residents who own vehicles that don't have anti-theft technology.
Funding is coming from ICBC and the Vancouver Police Foundation charity.
They're available at these community policing centres (CPC):
· Collingwood CPC – 5160 Joyce Street
· Hastings Sunrise CPC – 2620 East Hastings Street
· Kitsilano-Fairview CPC – unit 78, 1687 West Broadway Avenue
· Granville Downtown CPC – 1263 Granville Street
