This is a question Cars

"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Yeah
But not as obvious as the big keyswitch under the steering wheel (Or by the handbrake for old SAABs.

Won't stop a committed car thief, but will slow the average joyrider up enough to make them say fuckit and go somewhere else

a hidden switch
is a good idea on old cars (as in proper old, like my 79 camper van) as, if you fit it on the coil supply side, you can spin the motor over a few times without it starting, allowing a decent bit of oil pressure to build before you flick the switch.

stops it going takatakatakatakadrrrrrrrrrrr when you start it...
