Extreme way of keeping the thieves from stealing your car

Extreme way of keeping the thieves from stealing your car

Each to their own...

As South Africans, we are known for our unique ways of approaching things in life. 

Crime is something that no one enjoys talking about but it is something that homeowners have ingeniously approached when it comes to combating theft in their homes. 

From applying grease on the walls to broken beer bottles embedded in the fence wall, South Africans are very resourceful in approaching potential criminals. 

A TikTok video that displayed this resourcefulness also managed to make us laugh. 

In the video, we see a car's foot pedals on display, the clutch, the brake and the accelerator. 

Then we see a man pull up a door closing the foot pedals and locking the door.
