14 Comments on Truth Or Fiction?
Yes, I got that email last year and I assumed that it was true, but I don't know. I can only lock my car with the key fob. When I try to lock it with the button, it unlocks when I close the door, I must be doing something wrong.
hi Kathy,
I remember that email .... I try not to leave anything in my car that might attract thieves...it does make my handbag pretty heavy though when I cart all of that stuff around!
Jo
Sounds like fiction to me. Too many people leave their keys in the car to make thieves need to go to that much trouble. : )
Kathy - Nothing surprises me with security and encryption. Someone will always find a way.
Betty and John - Folks leave their keys in the car? Yu are in Springfield, MO, and you leave your keys in the car? Hmmmm I think I'll move there!
Kathy - Great post, and a good reminder for us all. I always look around before I lock my car with the remote nowadays because of that info....
I'm not sure if it truth or fiction. My car won't lock if my keys are inside......sure helps me to double check to make sure my car is locked.
I put my purse in the trunk when I go on my hikes but my husband said it's not even safe there. If soomeone breaks into my car there is a button to unlock the trunk. Easy peasy theft.
Jenny - out of sight out of mind ..... provides a small measure of security thieves generally look into the car for potential items to steal before breaking in ..... if their intent does not include stealing the car.
Kay - I suppose in the long run it does not matter as most security measures are at best a deterrent not a solution.
Dagny - always a wise move any way especially if you are out at night.
Marc - indeed they do
Betty and John - how would you explain to your insurance company ..... no I did not lend the thief my car even if leaving the keys was an open invitation.
Jo - thank goodness for the new smart phones and droids now you no longer have to haul your laptop around with you as well.
Katherine - my car requires me to lock it twice with the button on the door to help prevent me from locking it with my keys in the ignition.
