How Carjackers Celebrate New Year’s

By stealing your car, of course. In fact, last year, it was the holiday on which you were most likely to get your auto stolen.

Here’s the top ten (from Insurance Networking News)

The holidays ranked by number of thefts reported to the National Crime Information Center in 2009 were:

New Year’s Day — 2,760

Halloween — 2,325

Independence Day — 2,207

Memorial Day — 2,207

President’s Day — 2,204

Labor Day — 2,202

New Year’s Eve — 2,189

Valentine’s Day — 2,090

Christmas Eve — 1,851

Thanksgiving — 1,620

Christmas Day — 1,336

It’s nice to see that even most car thieves will not steal your car on Christmas. ‘Tis the season and all.

But as 2011 rolls in, be sure to lock your doors.
