ATTENTION. AT THE MIDDLE OF THE MOUNTAIN, NEVER GO TOO FAR FROM YOUR CAR, TO TAKE PICTURES. NEVER LET YOUR MOBIL-HOME ALONE, ANYWHERE.

IN ANY PLACE, ANYWHERE, NEVER LEAVE ANY PURPOSE AND VALUE INSIDE YOUR CAR

ATTENTION. The thieves know the cars from car rental companies. These cars and cars registered abroad are victims of many robberies. Never leave anything inside the car. And never leave anything on the back of the car. The back of the car must be visible to thieves who can see there is nothing inside to steal. Even with these precautions, it is possible that the thieves want to destroy a car window, and open a door. Thieves want to inspect under the seats and other parts. These warnings should be followed at all locations in Portugal. In Lisbon and in all locations, except for parking guarded, are not mounted surveillance cameras.
