Not necessarily. I worked for a dealership several years ago. Our dumbass lot boy left keys inside several vehicles over a holiday weekend. I only found out about it when a customer came in told me what car she wanted to test drive and said she already sat in it on Easter Sunday.

I asked her that myself and she just shrugged. It was a 50k car too, Not many people would've resisted that urge.

I would resist ! If I saw keys in a car, i would assume its either sold and a customers car (aka: grand theft) or an employee is getting ready to drive or move it. Either way - driving off in a car without permission is not in the slightest but tempting. (Grand theft again). I guess I wouldn’t make a very good criminal though. God, i fucking hate thieves. More than just about any other crime.

In the 90s, I was looking at cars at a dealership in Manchester after hours with my dad and we found a set of keys on the ground. We put them in the service drop box.

Dumbass lot boy or not, if someone told me that, I'd rather they not purchase from me at all if they're going to just get in my / my employer's property without permission. Though I understand it's a tough thing to say that when you work on commission.
