police offer an Automark iden- tification program. Vehicle valuables, such as CD and cassette sound systems, radios and cellular telephones are popular items for smash and grab thieves. Police suggest such items be engraved with a driver’s licence number. The small engraving makes it more dif- ficult for criminals to sell off stolen goods.
