There is a recent rise in the number of theft claims where the keys to the car have been stolen.
Leaving the keys hangin up by the front door is a bad idea. With a simple wire and hook they can be obtained by a thief through the letterbox.
Nice car owners houses are being targetted in smash and grab raids where keys are taken.
Car keys are taken out of jacket and coat pockets at restuarants as well, and the car is usually in the car park and easily identifiably.
Sadly some motorists are still stupid enough to leave the keys in the ignition whilst paying for petrol. (THIS IS NOT COVERED BY INSURANCE SO DON'T DO IT!)
Then the final one is where a car is bumped from behind or there is an "accident ahead" or driver needing assistance. Most people get out of the car leaving the keys in the ignition and an accomplice jumps out of hiding, into your car and speeds away. Cabriolets owners have had rats/mice and two cats tied together thrown into the car at lights. When they jump out someone else jumps in and goes off with thier car!
