And what would be the legal basis for the police doing that? -- Larry Presumably, if the driver's not on the rental agreement, then the car is being driven without the owner's permission. The renter may not have authority to allow others to drive under the agreement. Depending how various state laws are written that can be considered theft of the vehicle. Then that would be a pretty lax definition of theft (seeing that the person who has the rental agreement could still be said to be 'in charge' of the car). I'm glad that I don't live in one of those states, you'd find yourself at risk of being banged up if you picked up some litter off the floor to put in the bin. tim |
