on the contrary, I'd say they'd be the most helpful because they might actually turn up and scare the guy off or at least annoy him. Or he might give them a free ride cuz they might badly need some help themselves.

Not so much in the UK, here most cars are manuals

Outside of the UK most people get to ride to where they want to go that hour…

When I lived in London, that was usually quite easily achievable, as I lived a few hundred yards from an Underground station. Now, I have moved to rural Wales, and my nearest station is nearly three miles away, and it is on a branch line. Cars are pretty much essential round here if you are to have any kind of busy life. Fortunately, car theft is virtually unheard of round here. On a non-zero number of occasions, I have left my car unlocked overnight, once with the window wide open, parked a hundred yards from my house.

@@christopherdean1326 Yeah, there are still areas that need cars, but many people in urban centres I reckon could get away with it, particularly if there is a move towards less car centric places.

I wonder if that's true. How many car thieves, after putting a brick through the car window and a screwdriver through the steering column, would look down, exclaim "Aw nuts, I can't bear to wreck this bloke's clutch" and walk away?

Particularly useful against teenage dirtbags doing it for clout. “3 pedals?! I’ve only got 2 feet! This ain’t gonna work.”

Most Australians, especially young people, don't know how to drive manual cars. Cars. I would love to drive a manual but I recently bought a car and it was almost impossible finding a manual. (Australia) ​@@j_taylor

Facts. Our street was targeted for 18 months and only one manual car was stolen before being dumped about 40 meters later because they couldnt drive it.

@@hannahxx17 Wow! Well, then I guess it isn't only my friends who won't borrow my car. Lol

David doesn't have a car and gets driven places by Victoria.

@@ruthwashbrook4759 of course, because Victoria stole his car

Does David own any tools? All the tools in that house are Victoria's. David hasn't picked up anything in weeks.

If David did have a car and Victoria did that. She'd come home later to find David home watching the Telly. David: Oh are you back? When's dinner? Victoria: How did you get back home? David: I took the tube. Victoria: Did you seriously not notice that your car had been stolen? David: I assumed it was you. Victoria: You assumed it was me? Why did you not text me to ask? David: I thought you were busy. It was just easier to walk and take the tube.

@JustAnotherPerson4U Bwahahahahahaha omg I love this entire exchange it's perfect 🤣😂😹😻

Meeeb meeb....wrrooooom. 👀

The delightful Richard Coles... used to be keyboard player with the Communards back in the 80's :)

Richard Cole is great and turns up on panel shows a lot--very funny man.

That sounds like a challenge to me.

I had one shoe stolen once. When I was in college, someone on my dorm floor stole one of my sneakers. I never made a fuss about it, and didn't throw away the other shoe. Then, one morning near the end of the semester, I opened my door and the other sneaker was there. I never found out who stole it.

@@tygrkhat4087 Clearly, it took a semester off school to tour Europe.
