Car-sharing service HiGear shuts down due to theft...
Do you have better alternative than jail when you are dealing with thieves?
I guess 2x loss monetary fine could be a good replacement to jail time for first time thieves.

IMO starting with "what makes them steal" and fixing it, will deliver better results than, "how do we stop them from stealing anymore".

So if we determine that the main cause of stealing is thrill of highjacking the car and lack of empathy to car owner then the solution would be ... rewiring their brain?
