    Laws - View Law: JOYRIDING


    Joyriding is defined as borrowing someone’s car, bicycle, boat, or motorcycle without permission and with the intention of just using it for a while.

    Even if you are just a passenger, you are still responsible and if the vehicle gets damaged you may have to pay.

    Other penalties for joyriding are counseling, community service, probation, house arrest, detention, or having your driver’s license or permit taken away.

    About 1 month ago before i turned 17 i decided to take a car out joyriding. When this happened i was in my final week of school and final exames were taking place. One day after school i went over to a good family friends house with the intentions to mow the lawn. Earlier that week i had been trying to schedule a haircut appointment and i was told by my hair dresser that she could cut my hair today at noon. Once i got to my neighbors house i then saw her car and decided that i would borrow it to go get a hair cut real quick. I then took her car and drove on the backroads to my hair dressers ho

    I think people joyride because they feel power and show off. Or they do this because they think there cool and there the best.

    I think most teens do drugs because they have alot of stress and pressure on them. Not just from school though. Their homelife may be tough. Maybe it is their grades or if they are on a track team.It is really easy to get stressed out. But whenever I have to much stress or feeling pressured, I just work out on my fathers workbench instead of doing drugs. Remember, there are a lot of ways to kill stress or relieve pressure, So when you are having it hard. workout or do something that you enjoy!
