RCMP
CREATES NEW SECTION TO FIGHT
THE THEFT OF RECREATIONAL VEHICLES
|
|
The
RCMP in BC has created a new section to combat what
it calls an epidemic of RV, campers, boat, snowmobile,
and all-terrain vehicle thefts.
RCMP
Chief Superintendent, Earl Moulton said some insurance
companies now refuse to offer coverage on the
recreation vehicles because of the high theft
rate. Other insurance companies have raised premiums
in response to the thefts, making the purchase
of insurance prohibitive to many people.
Moulton
said the new RCMP section, called the Recreational
Products Theft Section, is headed by Constable
Larry Burden of Chilliwack. Burden was named "Investigator
of the Year in 2001" by the International
Association of Marine Investigators.

its Users in the prevention of theft and the recovery
of stolen Recreational Vehicles.
Under this section, you will find tips and articles related
to this matter.
You
also can create a username and password protected section,
absolutely secured and only accessible to you.You can
register your RV with a detailed description, photos and
serial numbers. The same goes for all your appliances
etc.
If you have purchased an RV from a participating Dealership,
most of this information can be transferred automatically.
On
a separate page you list your insurance information and
policy number as well as any other email address for reporting.
After a theft you just add where, when and the police
file number and with the click of the mouse your information
is forwarded instantly at any time to all the registered
places.
We
also will forward the vehicle details to all participating
police organizations, associations, dealers, insurers,
and wholesalers.
The
details and photos will then be transferred to a site
where the public and participants can view the information
24/7.
There
is no charge for this service.
