If I heard your daughter screaming "rape", would you really expect me to do nothing?
Solution to noisy vehicles 4818Odd - I can't find anything about it using Google. I would think such a story would have a bit more of a presence on the internet. If the car were on hospital property, wouldn't they...
Not true - if the car alarm sounds like mine (I only know what it sounds like because I tested it - once), I will look to make sure it is not mine.
Since car alarms hardly ever go off where I work or where I live, I very often do look.
Last year, a pickup truck without an alarm was stolen from the parking lot where I work, and a couple of months ago, someone took the rims off my neighbors Escalade - I'm still wondering why his alarm didn't go off - is it possible that some Escalades don't have alarms or that they set it down so gently that the alarm didn't go off?
Another possibility is that the alarm did go off and I slept through it. It's possible the owner heard it and saw what was happening, but was unable to do anything but call the police who arrived too late to apprehend the thieves.
That's a pretty big risk, especially since most cars with alarms also have some kind of kill-switch. It's more work, and I butture you it isn't "just as safe".

Are you willing to gamble that the owner is too far away to hear it and that nobody else is going to look?
The question is, what will they do?
It's very likely that all they will do is call the police and give them a vague description that's unlikely to help very much.
But a description is better than nothing. It's safer to steal the car without the alarm.
And that truck that got stolen from the very same parking space my car is often parked in at work? Never recovered.
I'd be a fool not to have an alarm.
