"Police say thieves can get from $100 to $150 for each converter. The insurance group counted just 3,969 reports of stolen catalytic converters in 2019, more than 17,000 in 2020 and more than 52,000 last year."

The trend is growing exponentially.

That's the beauty of the situation, the only way the thief would ever be punished for his crime is by doing it himself.

The DA has already released him.

Not enough evidence to convict him.

This thread just gave me a frightening thought. One of those converter thieves could get right under my Toyota Tacoma and cut off the converter without having to jack the truck up.

^^^^yep, it happens a lot.


Laws aren't preventative measures. In other words, more laws won't prevent gun crime from happening.

They are hell on vehicles with high ground clearance for that reason

Oh, I thought he was dead. How'd he survive a car falling on him?

PS I dated a girl many years ago who lost her father to this, but it was his own car in his own garage.
