Like to leave your car running to warm up?

Looking through the Dayton City Police website today, I was unsurprised to learn here that over 20% of motor vehicles stolen in Dayton are stolen with the keys in the ignition.

If you *must* warm up your car, have a second set of keys so you can lock your car while it's warming up. . .

That's a statistic that's reported across the nation. I saw it when reviewing data for APD. I reported a number of City and Cap Metro (Bus) employees for leaving their keys in their vehicles.
