The key is ... in the ignition

• "OK, the car key goes here, and you turn it this way to start the car -- YES! Now, if i remember watching Mom, I put the car in gear and start cussing at the other drivers."
• I've got the steering wheel and ignition down -- man, if only my feet reached the pedals!"
• "I'll hide my Mom's keys in the ignition — she'll never think to look for them here."
• "OK, now I've got the keys in the car, all I have to do is hit the door locks, and I'm good for several hours of peace and quiet, all by myself."
