The ‘Vehicle Security’ report by Key Note says vehicle thefts have been reduced over the last four years, but the theft of car keys has seen electronic identity devices come onto the market.
Key Note says that 7 per cent of adults had bought vehicle alarms in the 12 months to March 2004, and 7 per cent had bought car locks. 8 per cent of adults had purchased vehicle immobilisers, although the survey did not differentiate between mechanical and electronic varieties.
“Electronic identification devices, used a safeguard against the theft of car keys, form a promising new subsector,” Key Note says. “Publicity campaigns could give a strong boost to this product area, as the motoring public may not yet be fully aware of the scale of car key theft.”
