    I remember getting locked out of my 2003 Grand Marquis, and then watching the locksmith open it in about 5 seconds. It was then I realized that my door locks are a very minimal intrusion deterrent.

    That being said, I imagine it’s quite more difficult to get back into that vehicle.

        They also serve as a social signal. If you unlock something with a key, you are assumed to be the owner of it by bystanders. If you bust out a lock picking-kit and start going to town, you are assumed to be committing a crime by bystanders.

        Well it happens more often than you think because most armored Cars and Trucks outlook the dore instantly and make openings from outside impossible. A Police department near me made it mandatory for the keys to be attached to the belt with a small chain so its not being forgotten.

        Its a little embarrassing but nothing out of the ordinary. Its just insanely easy to do this by accident :/

    Imagine if that’s the moment they try to rob you, how do you explain that to your boss.

    I did the same thing to our firetruck on a call. We didn’t have an extra set of keys.

    Surprised I didn’t end up on a TikTok firefighter fail using a slimjim to get back into the truck.

      Many of those trucks have hatches on top either for a emergency exit (when its rolled on the side) or for heavy weapons. So trying to get in there is an option, they aren’t as much armored as the sides, but futile nonetheless.

      My first guess would be money transport

      I’ve seen them a couple times but I’m pretty sure a store can only have so much money on site. When you have a truck that’s visiting multiple of these stores on their rounds would definitely be a target for your ballsy ner-do-well

      Because sometimes people get violent with guns/fireworks and it’s quite useful to have some protection?
