Stranded Without Keys:
You're rushing to that important meeting, and suddenly it hits you. Your car keys are gone. Panic sets in as you frantically search your pockets, purse, and every nook and cranny of your home. This dreaded scenario, known as the car key crisis, can happen to anyone, leaving you disoriented. A spare set? Nonexistent, of course. Now what?
- Summon help - the most common (and often expensive) solution.
- Reach out to neighbors for advice and potential solutions.
