A steering wheel lock comprises a lock chamber 1, a first elongate member 2 and a second elongate member 3, and at least one locking shackle 9 pivotably connected to the lock chamber at its first end, and lockably engageable to the lock chamber at its second end, wherein both the first and the second elongate members each have first, second and third sections 5-8, the first sections extending from the lock chamber in a first plane, the second sections extending at the same non-zero angle from the first plane, and the third sections extending in a second plane parallel to the first. The lock may be unlocked using a biometric control such as a fingerprint scanner, or by using a near field communication system and a user’s device. An alert may be sent to a user’s device if a sudden movement of the lock is detected, either using the near field communication system or a mobile telecommunications network, the latter also being used to send a GPS derived position of the lock.
