And you can still lock the doors even when the vehicle is in gear?

A conventional key will not be removed from the ignition unless the vehicle is in either neutral or parked gear. I don't know, I drive manual. We have "intelligent key" for the dumb drivers, so I figure will have the same effect. When vehicle not in P or N, doors won't lock.

Don't have that problem Op as I have a 6mt, but do this with my car probably once a day:

Im 24 and have ADD all my life (not this

, but forgetful of small things) and I always place my fob in the cupholder. What I don't do, however, is take it out of the cup holder when I get out of the car after I turn it off lol. The funny thing is I always realize about one second after I close the door. Pretty much this

reaction . I guess im just used to pulling the keys out of the ignition as this is my first push button car. Does anyone else do this constantly?

I don't ever leave mine in gear unless I'm on a hill (which there are none here in Phoenix really).

The one time I had them in the cup holder, I did this, but my keys usually never, ever leave my pocket until I go to bed and empty my pockets.
