How long is it before something is abandoned? seconds,minutes hours?

Good question, there's a bike that's been chained to street sign near a bus stop bench for at least a week now. Does that count as an "abandoned bike?" I've also have seen a bike "abandoned" in a similar fashion in the parking lot of the local 7 - Eleven. That one I've often thought might be a police sting operation.

Again, exactly, if it ain't yours locked or not keep your mits off of it.
