My car was open and had keys in...it got stolen and found 20km away. No damage. Several other cars in the street had broken windows and signs of attempted hot-wiring. Cost to me - time. Cost to everyone else... they're all still pretty livid. Even more so that my car was about 15th in a line of 20. If it had have been first - different outcome.
YMMV.
- nogabebop23 6y agonot sure I would leave the keys in my unlocked car, but when I lived in a city with a lot more petty crime many people left their doors unlocked and some spare change in the cup holder. Everyday it was gone but no other damage vs. smashed windows for no gain. It pissed me off but others saw it as equivalent to pay for parking
- mlang23 6y agoYou were lucky. Dont you think your analysis is a bit egocentrical though? What if there was a major accident during that 20km drive? What if someone was killed with your unlocked car? Is the damage to your property still your only concern?
