But don't people hide a spare key under the car?   I don't use those 
fancy holder things as their magnets are not strong enough.  I use those 
super strong magnets with key in thin small plastic bag.  But I usually 
forget where I put it !!!!!!   Oh, do "modern" cars not have the old 
fashioned key???
