IMHO, Certain regional cities have been getting worse since covid,

Be it the cost of living, the increase usage with drugs, or other sad stories of upbringing, etc. youth crime is a BIG issue up here in regional Qld. Daily there is multiple stories about youth crime, stealing multiple cars, evading the police when chased (speeding through school zones, driving on the wrong side of the road, running red lights etc.), if they do get caught, they are released practically the next day, then these kids learn from how they got caught and improve their ways to not to get caught next time.
Some of these kids have been known to be carrying weapons (knives and machetes) on them too.
Opportunistic stealing from parked cars, like what happened to Prydey, is just the start of their criminal career to improve on their skill.
You may think you live in a ""safe"" area, once kids steal a car, they can go ANYWHERE.
