How Illegal.......?

My buddy just bought a Ford Mustang 5.0 with 260hp, but it was a 5spd car(manual) and he didn't know how to drive it. So he was asking around who could drive it home for him, and no1 knew how to drive standard, and I did. So I would have to drive it home for him. I dont have my license(G1), the car isn't insured, no plates, no nothing



I didn't drive it yet, how illegal ?

It's well over $5000 in fines alone...it's as bad as drunk driving almost, but when I was your age I did it all the time. Best time of my life, that's how I got into cars hardcore.

It's not failure to surrender any of the above!!! It's more like.

Driving without a valid lic.
Driving vehicle without insurance
and driving an unregistered vehicle

I believe the offence's would be
criminal
vehicle impounded for 90 day's
criminal/impounded.

Also you have to pay for the impounding and the towing which usually amount's to more than the car is worth!

As for offense of driving with G1

Hi Kevin

That is the current fine $110.00
Many insurance companies will not cover you if you are driving under these conditions as you are in contravention of the law.
There is a 30 day licence suspension for the driver if convicted.
To the best of my knowledge there are no points taken off for this type of fine..points are generally taken off for "moving" infractions and seat belt infractions.
As far as the parents, the "owner" of the car can be fined $225.00 for "permiting" you to drive without a qualified driver. However, there is no suspension of licence for the actual owner of the car (parent or otherwise)

Hope this helps you
Officer Mike

your brave.
but on the other note, legal wise
what you can do is, have the new owner sign rights to allow another person to drive the vehicle. Has to have legal documentation stating that the owner allows he/she to drive the vehicle. That's what my mom's friend did when a friend of hers son went to buy a type r. they got my my uncle to drive the type r to his house. He had legal documentation stating that the owner is allowing my uncle to drive the vehicle from its current location to its new location.

but your lucky you didn't get caught.\

but IMHO i think that was very stupid of you, no offense, something like that is not worth losing your licence or preventing you from getting your licence. depending how bad the situation is, they can probably with hold you from getting a licence for a really long time...
