What Is the Current Landscape of Car Theft in Australia?

Factors Contributing to Car Theft
Several factors contribute to the rising car theft rate, including the following.
Organised Crime: Sophisticated criminal networks employ advanced techniques to steal and resell vehicles.
Technological Advancements: Modern vehicles with keyless entry and push-button start systems are vulnerable to electronic theft methods.
Economic Factors: Financial hardship and unemployment can drive individuals to commit vehicle theft for profit.
Lack of Security Measures: Many car owners fail to implement adequate security measures, making their vehicles easy targets.
CODE SAFE Secondary Car Immobilisers: A Solution for Enhanced Security
CODE SAFE offers a range of secondary car immobilisers designed to provide additional protection against theft. Unlike factory-installed security systems, thieves cannot easily bypass or deactivate CODE SAFE immobilisers.
How CODE SAFE Immobilisers Work:
CODE SAFE immobilisers function by interrupting critical electrical circuits necessary for the vehicle to start. To start the car, drivers must enter a unique code or use a designated key fob. Without the correct code or key fob, the engine remains immobilised, preventing theft.
Benefits of CODE SAFE Immobilisers:
Enhanced Security: CODE SAFE immobilisers offer superior protection compared to standard security systems.
Ease of Use Simple installation and user-friendly operation make CODE SAFE immobilisers accessible to all car owners.
Cost-Effectiveness: Affordable pricing ensures technical security is within reach for everyone.
Peace of Mind: Knowing that a reliable immobiliser protects your car provides invaluable peace of mind.
Future Plans to Combat Car Theft with CODE SAFE Immobilisers
CODE SAFE is committed to avoiding emerging threats and continuously improving our immobiliser technology. Our plans include:
Community Outreach Programs: Educate car owners about the importance of vehicle security and the benefits of CODE SAFE immobilisers.
Collaboration of partnerships with major stakeholders who engage in social media platforms to help educate the public about the importance of adding another layer of vehicle security to protect their vehicles from theft. These could include local councils, MPs, state government and other agencies or influences to share data and insights on car theft.
1. Working with CODE SAFE registered installers to help promote their local businesses and support them by bringing customers to their doors for installations.
2. Work with insurance companies and ensure that they offer risk management to their members by reducing premiums to encourage more installations, which can help reduce the risk of theft.
Insurance companies hold a leading position and are key stakeholders who need to encourage their members to install secondary immobilisers. Each installation significantly reduces their claims, resulting in billions of dollars saved.
More importantly, by reducing car theft, we save the police from dangerous car chases that cause major road trauma. The government also saves time and money for its paramedics and other services that are called out to incidents involving stolen cars.
In light of the increasing car theft rate, car owners must proactively protect their vehicles. Installing a CODE SAFE secondary car immobiliser is a simple yet effective way to deter thieves and safeguard your investment.
By choosing CODE SAFE, you are investing in the security and peace of mind that comes with knowing your vehicle is protected by the best immobiliser technology available.
