my neighbor leaves his keys and his wallet in his 5 series almost continously
Sounds like he wants to be rid of a 5 series.

Sounds like an idiot to me. My previous job was for a company that did IT contracting for a lot of municipalities around New England. The last one I worked in was down by the shore in CT and I got talking to one of the police officers. He told me there had been a lot of car thefts in that town, gangs would drop off minors in neighborhoods to steal cars knowing the police wouldn't engage in a car chase with a minor. He said the kids being dropped off always found cars to steal. One guy in town had his car stolen and then recovered 3 different times because you guessed it, he left the car unlocked with the keys in it.
Also, from being an insurance adjuster in a previous life... many polices have a fine print statement saying they won't cover theft if you "give" the keys to the driver. Keeping the keys in an unlocked car falls under that category in their mind.
I used to warm my car up on the driveway before work, and one day I thought it had gotten stolen. I couldn't hear it idling out there anymore. I ran outside to see and it turns out the E-brake decided not to work anymore and it rolled out into the street

It's easy to fix, you just gotta have the famous Chrysler ignition that keys can come out of. That's why I don't worry about leaving my truck running outside anymore. I can lock it and not worry![]()
