A bunch of years ago I had a car that I could open the driver's door and start with a flat object. I had no illusions about its security so I never kept anything important in it, and if I parked anywhere that I wanted to ensure that it wouldn't get stolen, I took the rotor with me.KD5NRH wrote:Picking is, by definition, defeating the lock by manipulation without the proper key.

I've seen plenty of locks that functioned perfectly for years without any pins, since nobody tried to open them with anything but the key. If anyone had tried, any flat object would have unlocked them. One of those was on a door that had been kicked in.
Ever wonder why you never see a bump key in use on "Dallas SWAT?" They know how much easier and quicker it is to just break the door and/or frame.
