They wont become uninsurable but premiums may go up. My, first car, a mk1 ford fiesta could easily be opened with just a coat hanger - which was a good job given you could lock the car without the keys so they did get locked in it occasionally. Never an insurance problem.
I guess it'd be a safety issue that the car doesnt go into "no key mode" whilst its driving otherwise what happens if your key's battery died as you're driving down the motorway at 70 mph and the steering lock engages?
As to turning off? Certainly with some cars you cannot drive them without it. My old car wasnt keyless engine but the doors would set off the alarm if you only used the physical key and not the remote. The hire car I had over the weekend had no ignition to use a key in so cannot be turned off. |
