Vehicle Safety Assessment Survey

To reduce vehicle burglaries in our City, the Oviedo Police Department is conducting Vehicle Assessments to educate our residents and spread awareness about reducing the risk of becoming a burglary victim.

Officers are checking vehicles to determine if the vehicle is locked and free of valuables in plain sight. 

Criminals are opportunists and always looking for an easy target. A locked vehicle, and a vehicle with nothing in sight to tempt a criminal, is less likely to be burglarized.
