That seems to be common anymore. The two kids that drove into our house, the girl driving didn't even have a license, no insurance, etc, only charge was failure to maintain control.
Our insurance company has been fighting the battle for years.
The father of the passenger had insurance but since the insurnace company told the father to say the kid didn't have permission to drive the vehilce they were not laible for the damages. IMHO that should make an automatic theft charge, family or not, its way too easy to get out of liability like that.
