yaf28f Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Damn, I've only been back in Canberra a month and someone has already tried to break into my car. was parked in the griffin centre carpark near the contruction site between 7.30-9pm. Came back to the car and notice the alarm has gone off. Did a quick inspection of the car as usual and noticed slight scratches at the passenger door frame and window. looks like they tried prying my window open in 3 different spots but they were doing it in the wrong place anyway. the alarm must of went off when they used too much force. Is there any safe place to park in the city these days? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129463-some-one-tried-breaking-into-my-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS_DUY Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 london circuit, near the cop shop, in braddon, or if you can find a spot, at the servos. the griffin centre attracts a lot of derros, so not that best place to park...

Sinista32 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Not near a methadone clinic thats for certain. I must be getting on, I just wanna kill all the little F@#$%R's..Odds on an addict! Put a guillotine in Garema place and have weekend executions televised. It will either pursuade the F@#$%R's to stop or we'll eventually run out of addicts. Tollerance is not my strong suit!

FoX Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 That suck mate. I had the same thing happen to me in the civic pool car park. Try to park as close as you can to a busy area with people always walking by. I now try to park next to a pay parking ticket machine only because i know they are always people coming and going during the day. At night it may be a bit of a hike but you could try parking in the convention centre car park. I think its got CCTV on the entry and exit so you may get them on camera. If you dont have a screamer fitted inside your car i recomend getting one. The noise of these things is enough to make most people feel pretty crook and give them a decent headache. It sucks to hear this has happend in civic again!!

Stevie Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Dude I never park in civic unless its on the road. I'm a patient little bugger so I usually end up parked right outside Gus' cafe or in front of North... Otherwise take the run around when heading into town.

Terminal Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 i'm lucky, i work at the construction site next to the griffin centre, and as such have a key to the site. i park inside the locked, barbed wire fence at night, so none of the little druggo's can get in Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129463-some-one-tried-breaking-into-my-car/#findComment-2398825 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKYLVIA Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 its not just cars, houses too. canberra's theft is getting rediculous. and cops doing the minimum for most of the victims doesnt help get justice. YAY for the executions! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/129463-some-one-tried-breaking-into-my-car/#findComment-2411123 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 yeah a guy i work with had his house broken into today while he was at work, his missus came home and scared the crook off. that would suck worse than a car i think.

oscar32 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 And I second Sin's post-bring on the executions! Natural selection,I say:kill the stupid,drug f**ked low life scum... Yep yep yep. I've previously busted a guy trying to break into my old falcon, needless to say - I didn't involve the police. Having had my house and car broken into, I'd rather the car anyday. Your home is even MORE intrusive. Its not fair when you work hard for something, and someone decides they deserve it more than you.
