Unfortunately wouldn't deter anyone where I live... addicts will flip that for $20 within an hour, and go get their drug fix, before the owner even has a chance to catch the thief

Even worse are the organized criminals driving around in SUVs looking for high end bicycles, a good few videos of them all over xitter sadly, brazen enough to follow people home and rob them in their driveway

What country is this, so that I never travel there?

The first paragraph is just about every city in Canada right now. Can't even mow our front lawn with the garage open because they run into your garage and snatch it before you can run after them. Although I haven't heard of quite the extremes of the second paragraph here yet.
