And so it happened again!! Some twat broke the passenger side front window of our car, this time while it was parked in Bracknell. The only thing they took was the TomTom window holder. I can buy a new one for £22 at amazon, so I'll do that because if I made a robbery claim I'd have a "self" part of £200, whereas with only a glass repair it would be £60.
Everything is ready for the repairer to come tomorrow and fix the glass.
This time these questions arise
- Did anybody watch the CCTV that "look" directly at our car?
- YES
- Why didn't they do anything about it?
- Why did the car have time to break into two cars without anybody doing anything?
- NO
- Why is it there at all?
- Is my theory true? CCTV doesn't prevent crime, it actually aims it, because the criminal knows that there won't be any security people close by to catch them! It is a safe area to commit crime in as long as you disguise yourself…
Sorry to hear the car was broken in to again.
The idea of the constant possibility of surveillance (the panopticon) was that it would make people behave – it doesn't work.
