[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t leave your phone in your car as this person did.

Due to carjackings, I’ve started keeping my phone in a zipped pants pocket. I’m considering buying a GPS tracker. Apple makes them and I forget the name of them.

He wasn't dumb, he was just on autopilot getting out of the car after being rear-ended. It's perfect 20/20 hindsight to say, oh, he should have been sure to remember his phone when he got out. Do you have perfect reactions in a moment of sudden stress, at a place and time with which you're familiar so you aren't anticipating a potential crime, PP?

Also, of course he'd surely wish he'd had his phone on him but in the end the phone apparently helped police track the car. They were tracing the phone as it moved, from accounts I read. No, I'm not saying that's a reason to leave a phone in your carjacked car on purpose, so please don't go there. But it's at least fortuitous that the phone so unfortunately left in the car turned out to be a help in finding the car. [/quote]
