If you are going on an extended trip consider stopping your mail and paper deliveries, or at least have a trusted friend pick it up. Perhaps you can give them a key to go in and turn lights and/or radio on and off during the day.
Get to know your neighbors and watch out for each other. Do you know their daily routines?
If ANYTHING is out of the ordinary when you get home, do NOT go in! Call the police, allow them to investigate.
Approaching and getting into your vehicle, give it a visual check; under the vehicle, in the floor boards and back seat.
Lock doors immediately.
Keep windows up as much as the weather permits.
Leave parking area immediately. Do not sit in your car and "fiddle" with stuff. Move on to a safe, busy, public place.
Only leave your car keys when having a vehicle serviced. Remove house, office, etc. keys.
Think you're being followed, make a few extra turns, in public areas; drive to nearest police or fire station. Avoid isolated areas. Do not go home!
