Forklift drivers block in a car driven by suspected tool thieves

Yeah, but you could say the same thing about people stealing cars. Which is why I insure mine against theft. You can, and should insure your tools against theft if you are a pro, relying on them for your livelihood. At least in my experience in the U.S., my commercial vehicle policy covered tools stolen from the vehicle back when I was busting my knuckles. And I never left tools overnight at a job site unless I had an agreement from the G.C. or owner that my stuff was covered.

But you’re right, thieves are terrible people. At least tools are a lot easier to replace than hands.
