Upper Hutt Community Patrol - Safer Plates Event
Wanting anti-theft screws on your Vehicles number plates?
Our Patrol will be out assisting Petone Community Patrol with a "Safer Plates" event at Countdown Lower Hutt from 9am on Sunday 11th September.
Come down and get some Tamper-Resistant Screws for your vehicle number plates for a gold coin donation.
Over the past few months, a number of plates have been stolen throughout the Hutt Valley, and this number is on the increase. Stolen plates are being used to switch plates to facilitate crime such as petrol drive offs.
To curb the increase in number plate theft, Community Patrols of New Zealand - CPNZ have produced special screws which require a special driver to remove, these are used to replace the existing standard screws; this lessens the chances of the plates being stolen.
Hope we see you down there.
