Can someone explain to me the purpose of the steering wheel lock? I am just wondering if it is a security feature or somthing else.

 

if someone is trying to steal your car without your certain key it locks the steering wheel so they cant drive the car around, only in a straight line. Not always a security feature, b/c they could have some truck to pull the car onto a bed like a tow truck to take the car away but then again, if someone REALLy wants to steal your car, theyre gonna get it one way or another.........
