It is in some countries. The logic is: if you lock your car, it is harder to steal. If it's stolen because you left it open, it's your fault and you pay for police time and investigation. If a policeman sees your car unlocked they can give you a ticket for leaving that way.

What about those of us that don't want our car window bashed in by some crackhead cause the door is locked? I'd much rather lose a few ones and tens in my coin drawer than buy a new window.
