ABSTRACT:
A lock for limiting movement of a vehicle steering wheel. The inventive device includes a lower receiver for engaging a lower portion of a rim of a steering wheel. Lateral receivers are pivotally mounted to the lower receiver and operate to receive lateral portions of the rim. A lock assembly extends between the lateral receivers and projects beyond one of the receivers to limit rotation of the steering wheel to preclude theft of an associated vehicle.
