Do people lock their happening of many residential burglaries?
Many residential burglaries occur because of widespread misconceptions. For example, while people typically worry about nighttime thefts, almost half of residential break-ins happen during the day, when homes are vacant because owners are working. Moreover, robbing a house probably takes less time than many people think. "Most burglars get in and out in less than ten minutes," says Jean O’ Nell, director of research and policy at the National Crime Prevention Council in Washington, D.C. And thieves are well aware that, even for properties with sophisticated security systems, time is on their side. Police can take five to 45 minutes to respond to an alarm or call, especially in rural or suburban areas where they may have considerable distance to cover.
To protect your home, you have to lock doors and windows when you go out, even if you’re just going out to walk the dog or have a quick chat with a neighbor down the streets. It’s easy to get sidetracked and be gone longer than you may have expected.
More than half of all break-ins happen without force, in many cases through an unlocked door. So, also keep external doors bolted when you’re home. Supplement your locks with deadbolts having at least one-inch throws. If you have doors with glass panels, consider replacing the glass with polycarbonate plastic, which is transparent but break-resistant. Otherwise, a burglar can simply smash the glass and turn the lock.
选项
A、People do not lock their doors when they pop out even for 5 minutes.
