not with the car if it is stopped by the law? I cary my reg. & insurance card in my wallet. -- nm - peglegpete Oct 29, 16:40
Do you know where every address is in your town? The GPS does. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 29, 16:28 14
- And a carjack can't possibly have his own GPS, right? - Boo! subi Oct 29, 16:29 1
  - carjackers have an inferior intellect, clearly, otherwise they wouldn't need to steal cars and ransack houses. - Beryllium McGee Oct 29, 16:30
- ah, I see where you're going, they could just program it in. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 29, 16:29 11
  - I think the whole centers around the time issue. They will have limited time in your vehicle. True, probably 99% just want the vehicle, but the GPS - CrankYanker Oct 29, 16:32 9
    - I'm not arguing it's possible, but is it really that much higher a risk than a carjacker programming it on his own? - Boo! subi Oct 29, 16:36 5
      - You and I would think that way, I'm thinking of someone with a damaged intellect to begin with. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 29, 16:38 1
        
        Again. It doesn't matter how smart the criminal is or isn't. A guy who wants to rob your house won't stop because it's not programmed into your GPS. - Boo! subi Oct 29, 16:39
      - it saves him ten seconds! -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 29, 16:37 1
        
        *smacks forehead* Oh sh**, you're right. It is a huge risk. (nm) - Boo! subi Oct 29, 16:38
      - "...not arguing that it's *not* possible..." - Boo! subi Oct 29, 16:36
    - I have no idea who even lives in the apartments on either side. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 29, 16:34 2
      - I should have added a disclaimer to my post "Loosi, this may or may not apply to your situation". - CrankYanker Oct 29, 16:35 1
        
        oh, I think it's kinda silly regardless. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 29, 16:36
  - Indeed. Also, in my case, my GPS is my iPhone ... and it's not terribly helpful, as far as GPSes go. :) -- nm - Beryllium McGee Oct 29, 16:32
in NY state, it's a sticker on your window (no address) -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 29, 16:27
