Keyless Go without the key

So the other day i was half awake as always as i jumped in my car to work. I pressed start and left the house. stopped at a gas station and when returning to my running car i felt for my key. well to my surprise it wasn't there. i search the car not there either. drove home looked and then finally found it in the hamper upstairs in the jeans i was wearing the night before. I just tried it again today before I posted this and sure enough the car starts without me even having the key on me. Seems in every other keyless go car i have driven if the key isn't detected the car will die as soon as you hit the brake if it was in park.

No spare anywhere in the car. And it wouldn't let me lock if the spare was in it anyways correct.

You need to show the car to a dealer. Mine immediately starts flashing red if I drove 100ft without a key in a car.
