Many new cars today no longer have a traditional key, but a keyless card or badge that opens the car as soon as the driver approaches. The danger lies in the fact that car thieves can easily open a car as soon as the card is somewhere nearby by picking up and extending the radio signal.

For safety, car manufacturers rely on a motion sensor in the key. If the key remains in the same place for a while, the radio signal is switched off and the car can no longer be stolen. Yet thieves sometimes manage to manipulate the signal and drive away with your car.
