Keyless cars theft warning

KEYLESS cars are twice as likely to be stolen, an insurer has warned.

Aviva says drivers of keyless vehicles have double the chance of making a claim.

The firm’s Alec Reeder said: “While vehicle security has improved, unfortunately criminal activity is evolving too.

“We’d encourage people to take extra precautions.

“Mechanical devices – such as a steering wheel or foot pedal lock – can be a useful visible deterrent.”
