I mean, that’s basically what a trap car is, and those have been litigated to the point it’s very clear that it’s not entrapment and totally allowed.
I mean you have to be kind of stupid to see an expensive car sitting there with the keys in the ignition and go ‘BRO! New ride!’, but ‘stupid’ isn’t a criminal defense (so far anyways) and nobody MAKES them get in the car, start it, and drive off.
But this would be like a car that has the keys in the ignition and a sign making you aware of that fact.
Thats the point. A stand up citizen wouldnt even care. they may notice a easily stealable item but will just walk by.
