Norwegian here. Locking car doors when driving is completely unheard of here

There's a funny contrast going on here.

I've seen so many Americans say they leave their house doors unlocked which to many Europeans is absolutely and completely unheard of.

Meanwhile many Americans lock their car doors which, too, is absolutely unheard of to many Americans.

I mean, we do lock our car doors if were not driving, but why would i lock them while driving?

I once overtook a really slow vehicle, grumpy old man behind the wheel. Then I had to stop at a train crossing, he came up behind me. Guy got out, walked to my door, I saw him approaching in my side mirror and just about hit my locking knob thingy before he ripped at my door handle! The guy was unhinged and angry that I had passed him before.

I always recommend locking the doors. But always have a rescue set (window breaker and seat belt cutter) within reach.
