That really sux but I guess 'if that's the law' he should have known.
The guy riding the bike didn't have the proper license to ride it. I didn't say I agree but that's evidently the way it is.
Several years ago I was out one night... in a 1995 Vette that I owned. I got hammered.
The guy that I was hanging out with that night doesn't normally drink...but he did have a drink that night but only one or two.
I gave him the keys...I passed out in the passenger seat. When I woke up there was a NC State Trooper in my Vette starting it up !!!
What had happened was...we had come up on a traffic check and they smelled alcohol on him and pulled him out of the car and was parking my car on the side of the road.
When I woke up I asked the officer what he was doing and told him this was MY car.
Well he said "oh it's your car(?)...then you're going to jail too for aiding and abetting a DWI !!!! "
They took both of us downtown but luckily my friend passed the breathalyzer and we were both turned loose.
Crazy story but true.
We had to get our own way back to my car which was several miles away...what a trip.
