Having an underage teen in the home who wants to drive. I wanted to share with parents who may feel inclined to give in to the temptation of letting their child drive without a license.
In California, being caught driving without a license will usually result in a fine, payment of court fees, and payment of towing and impound fees. In the case of a minor, if the vehicle is their parent’s car it makes no difference and the car will still be impounded even though they are not the legal owner. In addition, the incident will go on the minor’s record and they will be delayed from obtaining a license once they reach the eligible age to do so.
