On TV News last night.

19 Year Old took out Mothers brand-new 320CLK whilst Mother and Father away on business. (Shades of Ferris Beuler)

After impressing friends and local girls he headed home at high rate of knots.

On the last corner, approaching the house, he clipped the curb and went ballistic.
He demolished the rear garden fence, cleared the garden without touching the lawn and entered the house via the kitchen window, putting the nose of the car into the lounge.

He was, luckily, uninjured, but car is a write-off and so is, at least, half of house.

Mother would not comment to the press but father muttered something about being on way home to have a "chat" with his son.

Police have charged him with "driving without due care and attention" and "driving without insurance".
They are considering other charges.

I am trying to find a picture of the incident.

If this was your son what would you consider to be a suitable punishment. ???
