He did not pick a lock. He used a key. Dummy keys for a 1996 Honda work as easily as the original key. Anyone that has a 1996 Honda that does not also use the club or some other similar device is asking to have their car stolen. It is just way too easy to get in a car and drive away

She told NBC 7, she is confident she locked her car, which is why she is so shocked at how fast the man was able to break in and drive off.

Did she produce the keys? When the vehicle is found and if there are no signs of it being broken into/tampered with, no theft settlement for her.

She can kiss it goodbye. The police are not interested in recovering stolen cars or prosecuting the thieves.

Friends of mine had their car stolen and it turned up later in a parking lot. IIRC, they got it back because it had been towed for being left too long. At any rate, there was plenty of identifying info left by the thieves (papers which all but named them), but the cops had no interest in pursuing it.

I had my Suburban stolen from in front of my house a few years ago. Just before dark I remember seeing 2 well dressed black boys walking back and forth on the sidewalk. They did not live in the neighborhood. I should have parked it in the garage. It was gone the next morning.

Apparently, they only made about 3 different keys for that car.

Before we were married, my wife owned an old late seventies Honda. One night she locked her keys inside and I was able to unlock her driver’s side door with the door key to my ‘84 Cadillac.

The car thief in the story probably took that car with an old Honda key. The locks in those old cars are so sloppy with age, they’re probably all interchangeable now.
