Bait car is one of the few shows that isn't staged. They actually did a episode with the local police department in the area where I live. I have a few friends on the police force and they said this a regular sting they do. Funniest part about it is they put a fairly newer model car in a crappy area and leave the keys in it. You got to be one dumb SOB to jack a newer model car with the keys in it left on the side of the road or parked in a wide open parking lot lol. There excuses are the best too after they get caught.
I've been seeing Bait Car for a couple of years already. Not sure what channel it's on.
They've never parked one in MY neighborhood because it wouldn't attract enough lowlifes.
Sounds like something I'll have to check out. Been watching some swamp people but its getting old...its just the same old thing over and over for the most part.
