Shouldn't cops be supporting moves like this. Most kids his age would merely drive the couple blocks and go home to bed; heck they probably wouldn't get caught either.
But rather, he did the right thing, and now he is without a license for a few more months.
Makes sense to me.... |
I'm curious on one issue with this. I know if you have keys in your possession in the car you can get charged. But what if you put the keys in the trunk? They're not on you, nor in your direct possession. Any police officers/lawyers know the answer to that?
