A mistake many drivers make could leave them out of pocket.
Merseyside Police have issued a warning for when the cold weather returns over the festive season. Officers said it could take only 60 seconds for thieves to steal peoples cars.
This often happened when people defrost their windshields and leave their car unattended. Police have previously said that thieves are "opportunists who will take advantage of a any situation - however brief those moments may seem."
