The H.E.A.T. Program
WHAT?
Help End
Auto Theft (H.E.A.T.) is a statewide vehicle registration program
administered by the Texas Department of Public Safety that helps law
enforcement officials identify stolen vehicles.
The program offers FREE
registration
to have your vehicle entered in a statewide
database, accessible by law enforcement agencies, 24 hours a day.
Personal and company vehicles are eligible for H.E.A.T. registration.
You don't have to be a permanent Texas resident to participate in the
program as long as you can provide a Texas address and phone number.
PUBLIC SERVICE
Any vehicle owner in Texas can obtain decals
for his/her car or truck that authorizes law enforcement officers to
stop the vehicle and verify ownership, between 1:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.,
anywhere in Texas.
WHY ENROLL?
A car is stolen in Texas every five and a
half minutes. More vehicles are stolen between 1:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.
than any other time. In 2003, more than 98,000 vehicles were stolen in
Texas. Simply by enrolling, you make it a lot harder for a thief to
drive away in your car.
