I don't use automatic locks, or the remote locks on my car. But I do notice a lot of people are just terrified to walk 3 feet from their car without locking it. What's in it? Some CD's?
I have left my car for 3 weeks straight unattended in a bad part of town completely unlocked. Never had a problem. If someone really wants to steal something, they can. I would much rather they open the door than they break the glass, however.
What does get on my nerves is the way the car beeps at me if I leave the key in the ignition with the door open. I know the door is open! Quit beeping at me.
I know I haven't put my seat belt on! Quit beeping at me!
I know the passenger hasn't put their seat belt on. Quit beeping at us!
Lowest Common Denominator style thinking makes me sad. So do bean counters.
