HE’S the sort of driver who would “go the extra mile” to keep his car safe and secure.

Whenever Mr Abdul Rahman Majid, 49, parks his car, he makes sure that it’s in an area with human traffic.

He also parks his car “head in” and turns the front wheels to one side.

This is to make it difficult for thieves to tow away his $120,000 Honda Odyssey.

He also uses steering and brake pedal locks.

The Singaporean real estate agent did all these when he visited Tebrau City in Johor Baruon 24 Jan.

Before leaving his car, he also made sure that his central locking and alarm system were on.

Yet, 25 minutes later, he was shocked to find that his car had been broken into.

And Mr Abdul Rahman has no idea how the thieves did it because there were no signs of forced entry.

“I was so confident that nobody could penetrate the car’s security system,” he said.

Mr Abdul Rahman and his family had gone to the mall, which is about a 20-minute drive from the Causeway, to return a faulty cleaning apparatus.

When they returned to his car, he was surprised to see that its glove compartment was open.

When Mr Abdul Rahman tried to disarm the car’s alarm, the windows began moving up and down.

“I knew something was wrong because when I tried to deactivate my car alarm, I didn’t hear the usual beeping sound.”

His daughter’s laptop, which was inside a bag on the back seat, was gone.

His GPS system, which was inside the glove compartment, a haversack and a handphone were also missing.

Mr Abdul Rahman, who estimated his loss at $3,000, made police reports in Johor Baru and Singapore.

When he checked with the carpark security guard, he was surprised to learn that his car alarm had not gone off.

“It’s amazing that the thieves were able to get into my car despite me having all these security features. I don’t know how they did it,”he said.

Our salvation in God is secure.

John 10:27-29

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”

Rom 8:38,39

“ For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
