It's very similar to the way you enter a pin code on your mobile phone. This lets you start and move your car, but it also stops criminals from stealing your car if you don't have your smartphone or PIN code.
Furthermore, the system is completely foolproof and unable to be detected by the devices that thieves who are high-tech frequently employ.

It's a simple way to protect your car, especially if it's been customised or is expensive or scarce.
