once the turbo timers on.. couldnt someone get in the car (ie break window etc) then once inside just keep pushing the turbo timer button to the longest amount of time then just keep pushing it??? someone could potentially keep driving until they reach their garage where they strip your car etc....

im sure it happened to my friend as a joke... but his was just driven round the corner.

[GOTRICE]

you could but you would have to drive with the handbrake up

[Boostzor]

Turbo timer cant be reset one the key has left the ignition so that cant really happen plus u cant really get very far in 1 minute at idle.

Also what about steering lock? Doesn't the steering will lock for you guys when you take the keys out?

maybe you could drive in a straight line through bushes and houses and stuff??

[Boostzor]

hehe yeh good point but u can disable that with a screwdriver and a bit of effort.

Remember the simpsons ep where Mr Burns gives Bart the ferrari and he cant even see over the wheel. ahh i loved that ep:lol:

with my car being an auto u cant get the keys out of the ignition unless its in park and cant change gears without the keys being in the ignition. hell u cant go into reverse unless u put ure foot onto the brake.....

but even still if the people can find ure TT then they have direct acces to ure ignition wires and can just satart it coz most immobilizers dont activate till 30 secs after the car stops, unless u have ure alarm wired in to allow it....

Bambam when you say they "searched" your car what exactly did they do and where did they look?:eek1:

Searching Persons without a Warrant

The Police Powers and Responsibilities Act permits police officers to search persons without a warrant.

The authority of the police to search a person without a warrant is dependent upon the existence of a ‘prescribed circumstance’. If a police officer reasonably suspects that a ‘prescribed circumstance’ exists. The prescribed circumstances in which an officer may search a person without a warrant includes circumstances in which the person is reasonably suspected to be in possession of:

a weapon, knife or explosive;

an item which the person intends to use to cause harm to any person;

a dangerous drug;

stolen, illegally obtained or tainted property;

evidence of the commission of an offence punishable by a minimum of seven (7) years imprisonment, which the police officer reasonably suspects may be concealed or destroyed if a search is not conducted;

an implement of housebreaking, motor vehicle theft or drug use.

Searching Vehicles without a Warrant

An identical set of rules apply to police searches of vehicles without a search warrant. A police officer may stop and search a vehicle, together with anything in it, if any of the above ‘prescribed circumstances’ exist.

When searching a vehicle, the police are allowed to enter, re-enter and stay in the vehicle as often, and for as long, as is necessary to properly carry out their search. The police also have the power to move a vehicle to an appropriate place for a search, in particular if it is impracticable to search the vehicle where stopped.
