Also see what car u drive.
I drove my 7K 4x4 with multiple colours for the exterior (accident but never bothered to respray) and accidentally left my Dell Precision inside the rear passenger area and forgotten to lock it. The auto lock was not working then. After 5 hours of meeting, went to the car and saw the laptop still there but the new Myvi parked next to me got broken into instead. |

Most ppl who got their car windows smashed and stuff stolen are usually :
1. Being targeted. 2. You (whether subtle or obvious) let ppl know you have valuables in your car before u left your car. Ppl don't care what you have in your bag. Any desperate ppl saw ur bag/computer bag in your car, they will just smash and grab. |

I once lost my laptop in a shopping mall parking lot. The vehicle was locked and showed no signs of theft. Only notice when I get home. Since then, I won't leave valuables in the car anymore.

My car got broken into once. Happened in Pavilion KL. Break in through rear quarter panel glass, unlock from inside and disable alarm. Laptop and hard drive in boot, sunglasses, loose change all gone. Best thing is the thief cleaned my car nicely. No glass shards etc. For those who said put in boot ok so far no problem, let me tell you it’s just incident waiting to happen. I spoke to the IO handling my case. All these are seasonal. Just when you realize its safe and no more such case, it’ll strike again. This post has been edited by WaterBuffalo: Dec 12 2022, 01:32 PM ZzZzz... liked this post

It depends on the brand and model of the car you drive.

If you even hang a big plastic bag which look like have something valuable conferm pecah cermin.
If smart don't put valuable items inside. Even in Murica they give up. Write notes, leave car unlocked but put a few dollars inside so they can loot it and don't break glass. Unless homeless pipul, druggies and horny pipul, then car safe and still clean. This post has been edited by fu'house: Dec 12 2022, 01:35 PM |

Can't detect but store it into the boot before leaving office and not at the destination. I used to do it for years but I no longer carry a laptop these days.
Most who are targeted expose their bags, store it at the destination or show-off their lanyards or tags of well-known companies giving laptops (this was in Penang). |
