Yes, it has happened; but for the most part it is not the criminal trend that the Internet makes it out to be! Your garage door opener is more potentially a way to get into your house than your GPS!

Actually, registration do NOT have address indicated. Only insurance paper and insurance is supposed to follow the driver, not the car. I never leave a copy of the insurance in the car.

People have been breaking in cars when they see the GPS mount here.. :( That's very pain in the ass sometimes.

And Texas. And Florida. And every other state I've ever seen...

Maybe not up in Canuckland, but down here where the sun actually shines and the snow melts, it's that way.
