Summary

A Los Angeles man shared a routine to prevent car break-ins, including leaving $2 and a sock filled with rocks on his rearview mirror. The strategy, which he claims has stopped further break-ins, involves a handwritten sign and a fake security camera. According to Glass.net, window replacement costs in Los Angeles range from $155 to $1,836. Sebastian, who has experienced over 20 break-ins, says the routine has worked for three months. Critics question its effectiveness and practicality.

The habit gets a new name.

Leaving $2 in the car is now called “security.”

A sock with rocks is a new kind of deterrent.

People are confused, but the man is confident.

It’s not a solution—it’s a performance.
