ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and device for preventing theft of an automotive vehicle, in particular, one which engages the brakes to prevent the vehicle from moving. An anti-theft device is coupled to the brake system, and, upon leaving the vehicle, manually actuating a concealed switch to enable the anti-theft device. The device is designed so that it is not operable until the brakes are operated by the thief. Once the brake system has been used by the thief after actuating the switch, engagement of the brake system is maintained, preventing movement of the vehicle.
