Pay close attention if you see a plastic bottle on your tire.
One of the many problems with modern life is that the cost of living keeps going up and you have to work all the time.
Even though we have a lot on our plates, we should never forget how important it is to protect ourselves, especially in high-risk situations where not acting could have terrible results.
You should pay close attention and act quickly if you ever find a plastic bottle stuck between your car’s tire and frame. It’s important to call 911 right away in this case.
Read on to find out why…
Thieves today are getting smarter and more creative. In fact, they’ve come up with a new way to steal cars that is alarming people all over the world!
Car thieves have found a way to steal cars using a low-tech (and secret) signal.
This way of doing things quickly spread and has even been seen in the US, but it was first seen in Limpopo, South Africa.
This is how the plan works: when someone wants to steal a car, they “mark” it by putting a water bottle on one of its wheels.
It says that you should put the bottle on the front passenger side wheel to hide it from the driver when you get in the car.
The driver starts to speed up, and an unsettling crackling sound comes from the empty plastic bottle.
Most drivers would stop right away to look around and see what they might have hit.
The car thief should move right now.
If thieves get into a car while the engine is running, they can easily take the owner’s things and drive off.
The criminal, on the other hand, could use the chance to break into the car and steal the valuables that were left behind, like a phone or wallet.
In any case, getting out of the car to find the source of the noise puts the driver in danger.
Michigan radio station WCRZ says to protect yourself from this trick: check the wheels for a few seconds before getting into your car.
Make sure that everything is where it should be. If you find a water bottle stuck between the tire and the frame, be very careful. The person who wants to steal could be behind you.
Next, you can call 911 without being seen to let the police know what’s going on and that you’re scared for your safety.
