What the heck is the Panic button for anyway?

That Panic button on the keyless remote fob... is that really a high-use item? Do people really need it? I wonder why Ford has kept that thing on there.

Thoughts?

Exactly. Or use it to jack with people. Before I had the aftermarket alarm put on mine I would be sitting in a restaurant and see somebody going out to their car. I'd hit the panic right when they stepped next to the car :dance: They would always have that panic'd look on their face for a few seconds till I turned it off. Good times.

The panic button is disabled on my car when the car is running but on the aftermarket cheap alarm we had on our 'soccer mom mobile' it still worked. My spousal unit hated it when she just pulled out of the driveway in the morning as she leaves for work and I would hit the panic button on the other set of keys inside the house. She drives off with the siren going off until she can fumble around and turn it off.

PS: Married guys, do not try this. I do not recommend this.
