Solutions for when keys are locked in the car include: 1. Try to hook the door lock by tying a metal hook to a stiff wire or thin iron wire, then slowly inserting it through the window seal, and repeatedly pulling until the hook catches the inner lock or handle to open the door; 2. Use a tool to break the window—breaking it won't affect driving, and once broken, a long stick can be used to retrieve the keys; 3. Directly contact a locksmith or visit a 4S shop to replace all the locks, which can protect the vehicle from damage to the greatest extent; 4. If it's a smart key, try shaking the car door—it might open automatically; 5. Call a professional towing company to have the car towed away.
