    in ohio i have to have a title, in kentucky i do not need one..they do how ever take down the vin number in ky.....iuse a block mason's hammer to unlock steering wheels when i dont have keys....i just grab the wheel and pull down on it,,then i hit in between the part where the collar and the wheel come together.....you will find a little pin once you either pop it out or bust the little housing it locks inside you are good to go..



    if a person was pulling a car with a chain and had a friend steering it and you happen to do it the way i mentioned...please MAKE SURE..the pin is all the way popped out..if it is not it can and most of the time will eventually catch and re lock before you get where you are going....i know most places it is illegall to pull cars with chains but i also see it done all the time so i figured id add that little piece of info

    if you do not know what you are doing it can be real difficult to move cars with out keys...i can break most free in a minute or 2 but i have done tons of them
