Vaughan has always been a safe place to live and raise a family, and our partners at York Regional Police, along with our residents, work hard day in and day out to ensure this remains the case. However, we know that keyless ignition vehicles are now the prime targets of car thieves, so I am pleased that Council has endorsed a pilot program to distribute protective pouches for car keys. These pouches reduce a thief’s ability to intercept a key’s radio frequency – hopefully reducing the number of auto thefts in our city.
We will continue to work with our municipal counterparts in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area, other levels of government, police services and others to fight auto theft in our community.
