That is assuming you got a GTS... and they aren't just tow-jacking them.
The GTS won't start without the remote INSIDE the car, so I guess if that unfortunately happened, throw the flamin' thing to the sh*thouse!! Always get another and get the car towed!! Best thing, drive with it in your pocket!!

I haven't tried getting out of the car with the remote while the engine is running - suppose just do that, say 'go for it!' and hit the stop button and run like hell!!

Scary thought!!
