MOTORISTS are being encouraged to help cut car crime over the festive period.
RAC Auto Windscreens has launched a safe sack scheme which encourages drivers and passengers to remove valuables from their car and carry them in the sack.
The sack, which is a form of backpack, has so far proved to be popular across the Cleveland Police force area, with many shoppers taking up the offer.
The free sack also contains a booklet of security tips and a card warning potential thieves there is nothing to steal. The sacks are available from RAC depots and shopping centres.
