minus-squareSwizzleStick@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 个月前You might not have access to the keys for a long period of time. Only need a moment to take a code and leave the keys there. If the car isn’t otherwise monitored, theft of contents without keys would be trivial. You’re probably getting busted anyway, but the concept is there.
