    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.

    I think the law on joyriding needs to be more defined. Most joyriding is just a prank played on a friend. You take the car without their permission and drive around in it. If there are damages done, then yes you should be liable. But i don't think there should be given punishments for harmless fun, unless illegal substances were involved. Should you really get your license taken away for a harmless prank?

    I think it is a good law because if someone takes your car without permission and they wreck it you have to pay for it.

    Joyriding would be fun, but get the owner's permission so you don't get in trouble.
