Chipped Keys

[IllusionX]

I believe some states require all cars to have a chip key. At least, it is by law in Canada since 2008.

It may be; although I can't understand the government's "compelling interest." This isn't a Lamborghini we're talking about.

And if someone wants a car badly enough, he doesn't need keys. A wrecker that lifts by the tires will do just fine. Most cars aren't stolen to drive, even as getaways - they're stolen to part out. So, use your wrecker to haul it away, chop and drop.

Yeah, that post was an eye roller to me. I love Canada, but that policy = too much government meddling IMO.
