Yes, a car ignition can be picked. However, the process can be a bit difficult, especially if it is a car with a modern key pattern. Lever locks come with quite a tasking process of picking the ignition; hence you would need to perform a special pick on them. Many cars are designed with a wafer-tumbler-based lock. In that case, it is quite possible to pick the ignition or the door locks the usual way. In any case, endeavor to be careful in the process of picking the ignition or door locks to avoid any form of damages.
