How much crap does he have on his key chain? I have heard tales of folks with lots o shit on their key chain causing it to be heavy and thus allowing it to rotate the key to OFF when either accelerating or breaking. Odd, but true (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

strangely enough he has 1 ignition key. 1 house key, and 1 office key. his doors dont lock, nor does his trunk...good thing there isn't anything valuable in there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
