I know that my insurance policy is very clear that if I leave my car unattended with the keys in it then I am not covered for theft. If it was I would have a new car every year!

True, although in this case there could be relatively innocent victims involved if there are others in the house that might, through a freak of genetics, actually have a brain.

I recall reading someplace (I read too much to remember where) that most of the "facts" from that story were rebuked anyway. It was a huge Facebook clickbait a couple of years ago and even the big news chains fell for it.

London police would not even bother to look inside much less run it for prints and do forensics. They would call and say your car is here come pick it up and that will be $120 for towing please". Some kids took an unlocked and running car for a joyride and they are not going to pump resources into finding them. We are not talking about hunting down a crack team of international car thieves here.

I'd love to jump on the sympathy train, but I can't, due to the idiotic circumstances.
You're lucky that didn't happen down Brantford/KW/Hamilton way. They'd have found your car, but it would have been a burnt out shell on or very near a reserve. |

Well if the addition of a panic button on the remote along with the central lock button on the passenger side isn't a clear indication of potential theft in North America (at least what the Japanese manufacturer thinks of here) then I don't know what is.
I guess in Japan you can leave the car running outside and hop out to grab a sushi with confidence. ![]()

Cops down by me unless someone was killed they could give a shit less about catching the person.

![]() YRP crime map lists a vehicle theft at this location, date and time.. So I take my question back, and apologize for doubting. It just throws me off that the original post has no pics and only part of a plate number, and then the "found" post got deleted. |

![]() I agree leaving a key in it facilitates theft. But saying take accountability for his actions? So leaving your car running in a public place means you are intending it to be stolen and should have no recourse? Okay then...
