How far will the car go without the key detected?
Got a dumb question, but I noticed that even if the key is not detected the car can still move. Has anyone tried driving the car without the key? and how far can you actually go.

If will keep going until you run out of gas or turn off the ignition.. I forgot my keys once and went to my parents house which is a good 10-15miles. My maxima does the same thing.

there should be a recessed reset button to shut it off, or the car should go into limp mode if it gets too far. I've noticed this too and it basically allowed anyone to steal your car
