<p>Smash and grab is a term used to describe a burglary in which the perpetrator smashes the window of a car, grabs goods, and then flees. It is also sometimes known as a “smash and run”.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The smash and grab threat is a common form of crime affecting businesses in the automotive industry, and it’s an issue that we cannot ignore. This type of crime is more prevalent in areas with high concentrations of cars, such as parking lots, gas stations, and car washes. The smash and grab threat can be mitigated by installing auto glass repair systems that prevent windows from being smashed using shatter-proof materials or installing a shatter-proof film on the glass.</p>
