    Dead locking means the car can't be opened from the inside. I.e pulling up the lock pin

    If someone smashes your window, the only way in is through the hole.

    Stop ya using a wire to open the car through the door jam. Also if you have rain sensing wipers and leave your windows open, if you double lock it the car will close the windows if the rain starts
