Warning, not risqué, but may not be work safe.

I can't believe this guy only got 4 years in jail.

[Gurm]

I can't believe... that they left an unlocked, running car... and that it's not considered entrapment?

[High_Jumbllama]

That alone is not entrapment. If someone verbally suggested it or they left a sign or such that would be.

Some of the other videos on the baitcar.com website show the cars being hotwired.

I think maybe the video was edited and the hotwiring wasn't shown. The scene starts with him entering the car and putting it into gear but he could have just stepped out to grab his tools, etc.

Bah, they ought to see me when I'm driving to work...

You know, the thought just crossed my mind that if I ever got pulled over in my blazer I might have some explaining to do...

You see, it doesn't need a key to be started anymore (and no, it's not permanently hot-wired).

LoL, my car is the same, the ignition key is pretty much optional.

The only key I have to it these days is the one to the rear hatch/door.

Parents of my ex (?) (...crap, no "?", who the hell I'm fooling) have a car that doesn't even have a key!
