Why not? It's built into my car, and I'd prefer to not have $100+ repair bill every day.

The smart thing to do is map to a location NEAR the house, major intersection, some place you still know how to get home, but that will still give the GPS best route path. My "home" is about a mile away from the house.
Set your "Home" location to the police station nearest your house.
I don't know if my car's GPS has a "home" location (I only use it for cross-country trips), but if it does, that's where I'm setting it.
