Few things are more annoying than suddenly realizing that you locked your keys in your car. According to AAA, more than 4 million of its members annually find themselves locked out of their vehicles. The cost of an emergency locksmith can be very high, especially if you try reaching one in the middle of the night or on a holiday. Fortunately, some basic precautions should help to lessen the anguish, inconvenience, and cost of locking your keys in your car. Here's a closer look at some of the more viable and effective options you have if you lock your keys in your vehicle.
Nothing will get you into your locked vehicle faster than having a spare key on your person. You could carry one in your wallet or purse and help you to have it ready no matter where you go or at what time. You don't need a spare key that'll start your vehicle, but that surely could help. Unfortunately, if your vehicle is among the many newer models that require a fob to engage the ignition, the cost of a spare key can run into the hundreds of dollars. A simple spare key that will unlock the door usually is enough, especially if you can see your keys hanging from the ignition or sitting on the car seat.
Another great option is to call an emergency locksmith. Although you'll have to pay a fee to get back into your vehicle, this is well worth it. If you do call a locksmith, be sure to provide proof of insurance or ID, so they can verify that you're the owner. This option will allow you to get back into your care safely without any damage. An emergency locksmith can save you the headache of trying to get back into your car on your own. Instead of struggling with a coat hanger or a credit card to open your door, simply call the locksmith. You'll be glad you did.
