    Judging by the skills or should I say current lack of them, I've seen on the journey too and from work I'd say very easily indeed.

    He will probably be banned from driving from 1 year - from this date. And by the time he is 17 he can drive again. Atleast thats how the justice system around here seems to work.

    Na, thats too much work. Just tell his parents to erase the game saves on his playstation, oh and dont worry about the damage im the owners wont mind the added ventilation.
