Sydney car owners can take the first step in fighting crime by having anti-theft screws fitted to the numberplates on their vehicle.
Operation Tabella, which encourages people to use tamper-resistant, one-way screws, will be launched by The Hills police in Kellyville next month. Commander of The Hills local area command, Superintendent Rob Critchlow, urged car owners to get involved and change to tamper-proof screws.
"The theft of numberplates is linked to other serious crimes such as robberies and frauds," he said.
"By using these clever screws, car owners can simply reduce a lot of crime."
The free service will be conducted by police from The Hills police at Kellyville Plaza on Thursday, August 13, in the Woolworths carpark between 10am and 2pm. The Men's Shed will be putting on a barbecue.
Police will install the tamper-proof screws if the registered owner is present on the day. They will also talk about car security and other safety issues.
If your numberplates are stolen report it to the Police Assistance Line on 13 14 44.
