Further to Andy Bennet...
Decades ago I was leaving work late. One of the clerical staff was in a state. They had all been to the pub and somehow misplaced their car keys but had managed to enter the car. To my amazement, contrary to the stereotype for his ethnic grouping, the guy did not know how to start it. So I hot wired it for him. When I left minutes later I encountered the car stationary in the middle of a nearby very busy intersection. They had got to the corner when the steering locked. A group of us managed to bounce the car so it could be steered out of the main flow.
