Yes- if you get stranded in one it's exceedingly easy to 'find' cheap transportation.
I think i read somewhere recently that the #1 cause of stolen cars in the US is people leaving them unlocked with the keys in them.

My FIL went over to check on him and heard something...the guy was still in the house hiding in a closet!! He ran, pushed over my FIL and ran away.
Scary times indeed.

Thank god that dude wasn't in the mood to commit double homicide.
