What would you do if you saw a car key left in the door of the car parked beside you?

Hi MCFians, I just encountered this particular scenario at a MSCP earlier. I parked in a lot and placed a parking coupon on my dashboard. Upon exiting my vehicle, I noticed a car key left in the front passenger door of the vehicle parked beside me. I pondered for a few seconds and decided to employ poll option 2: "Open the door, Remove the Key, Leave it on Seat & Close the Door (Doors Unlocked)".

 

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Good day,

 

Take the key with me, lock the car and left my ph number on the wind screen.

I would lock the car take the keys and leave a note.

 

"Lost & Found Car Key, Contact: 9xxxxxxx"

I did think of employing poll option 3 but I remembered there was a time that I left my only car key in my previous car and was left no choice but to call a locksmith. The damage $40. The wait 90mins.

 

I couldn't bear that the owner suffer the same fate as I did. Not to mention the inconvenience caused if the owner was intending to rush off for an appointment.

u could left him with a damage of the car's price..

 

$40 vs car price.. i rather pay $40...

[Nirxe]

Maybe, i will remove the key, leave my contact/name card, close n lock the door.

 

I'm already kind-hearted to do such a deed but I certainly wouldn't want to go to such great lengths to inconvenience myself further.

Drive to workshop, log onto MCF and advertise

 

"Hyundai Matrix scraping car

parts for sale , tyres , rims, gear knob, body panels

engine, windscreen, exhaust, etc etc"

 

OR

 

put superglue on the key and put it back where it was

I think best will be to leave the key as it was

owner will return to the car and enter start the car without hassle
