Have you ever tried or gotten into a car that looks like yours, but wasn't? Have tried my remote on other cars several times! Oh, and one time I DID actually try the handle and wondered why it wouldn't open. Then I noticed stuff in the backseat that wasn't mine. Oops!

If you park next to the same type of car especially if it is the same model & color and the other driver was there would you say "hey look we have the same car" or something along that line? A few times when this has happened, is just said, "Nice car!" to the other person.
