If You See A Plastic Bottle On Your
This is said to be a trick car thieves have started doing a while ago. The thieves shove a plastic bottle between the passenger side wheel well and tire or on top of a passenger side tire so when the victim gets in and pulls out they drive over the bottle and hear the noise of the bottle being crushed
Thieves now have a new method to take advantage of you. It also works incredibly well. Carjackers have figured out a practical and incredibly economical way to take your vehicle.
Always keep in mind that there could be a possible thief hiding in the shadows if you detect a water bottle on your tire. They have you under observation. They are also ravenous for your car. Despite the fact that this trick was first discovered in Limpopo, South Africa, it has rapidly expanded over the globe and is currently very popular in the US.
This is how the ruse functions. A prospective carjacker will “mark” a car they wish to steal by pressing a water bottle up against the wheel. To hide it from the driver when they get in, they placed the bottle on the front passenger side wheel.
The empty plastic bottle crackles and creates a lot of other unsettling noises when the driver tries to move the vehicle. Most drivers stop their cars and get out to see what they ran over as their initial course of action. The carjacker then makes his move!
