That's interesting, here in the Netherlands I believe you can carry them about and use them, but of course only with permission of the lock owner.
- wkat4242 3y agoIt makes no sense anyway. Burglars don't use lockpics. They don't care about doing damage and do care about speed so they just use a crowbar which even doubles as a weapon if someone's home. Banning lockpics is just security theater and does nothing to reduce burglaries. Bump keys are also much more effective by the way. And look like normal keys to the uninitiated.
