Place the key in the ignition and grab the steering wheel with one hand. Apply steady force in one direction to try to turn the wheel and as you do so, turn the ignition key. The steering wheel will simultaneously unlock as the ignition key turns allowing you to start the car. This is an antitheft device and is common on most cars.
