I still use one of those wheel locks on my old ute, plus its a manual so its theft proof. Around here though the trend is breaking into the house and bashing the elderly if they don't give the keys up.

Jumper leads obvious and freshly placed in the front passenger footwell. It leads to a certain impression. (Which is actually wrong!)
Waiting for the #roadranger TikTok theft challenge! |

Thieves would be like, look at that copper cable just sitting there or are they smart enough to work that out.

Don't get too cocky, these days this attitude might earn you a stabbing since most thieves these days are numerous in groups who don't have values for life as we know of it.

These days the poor unfortunates without personal transport would likely be given counselling, after the stolen vehicle is discovered burned out, asked not to continue their anti-social behaviour, then dropped back at whatever address they gave the police by a taxi with the fare picked up by the taxpayer. I will probably now be accused of not understanding the pressures of being a disadvantaged person in these 'troublous' times. |

I seriously question the merit of allowing an app like TikTok. Perhaps it could be removed from Google and Apple’s app stores?
