It will get tired of beeping. Perhaps it may follow the key fob.
On a serious note, nothing happens. It only beeps for a few seconds, but if you don't lock it anyone can still drive it away.
I haven't tried this, but I will "leave" the key fob in the garage while I drive around my block to see if it shuts down after a few minutes or if anything happens at all.

one thing i found on from my 07 Si and that i've tested on my 07 350Z and now my 09 370Z is that if you push the unlock button from your key fob, but don't open the door, within 45 seconds, the car will lock itself on its own.

Most cars do that (modern cars with factory alarms). You can unlock it, but if no doors are ever opened then the car lock itself again. Some manufacturers gives you 45 seconds, others 30 seconds or a minute.

I bet no one knows this......
If you want the passenger to STFU, all you have to do is (while in a safe zone/area to do this) do a quick input in the steering wheel of hard left followed by a hard right. The passenger's head (the side of the head) will hit the glass. They will get the message..

I do it to my wife whenever she starts bickering or annoying me. She gets the message.

I forgot to mention while the vehicle is in motion I.E. anything above 30-35 mph.

All this talk about storing a handgun in the cubby holes got me thinking; If you're in an accident, couldn't you have a gun flying around your head?

Yes it could. This time at band camp....in Alabama, I came to the rescue (since I witnessed the accident) of an elderly man, and there was a small caliber gun floating around the car. I picked it up, put it in my back pocket until police and ems arrived. Then I handled the gun to them. I don't know if it hit him in the head or not but it can potentially hurt the driver or any one else.

Of course. - but if you have the need to carry one. Things must not be so well, that you have to choose to carry one. But then again like you said. It is people's choice.

There is no reason to lump law-abiding, responsible gun owners into the same category as irresponsible gang members

I live in NY. It's easier to get pot holes fixed than get a CC. And forget about anything over 1 round in a "mag"...

I'm with you. I'm an old coot and have lived in Chicago,(of all places), for nearly 50 years and never once felt the need for a gun. Paranoia is taking over this country. Just got to be street smart.
