dont matter who is driving ur shit. if they are family and they got a key means they basically got your permission. call it stolen if u are really trying to pull one over. or just suck it up this time and dont make the mistake again |
They'll try to pull that shit over on you but that in most cases is far from the truth. Been there a couple of times some bikes and once with a car that I sold the people never transferred. Nothing ever stuck. Then on a second bike I had the same thing but the kid ran and they got the plates. I didn't have a bill of sale but I could show them the deposit in my bank, when I canceled insurance (which they even documented the reasons I stated I was canceling the policy was because I sold it, so that helped I'm sure). The burden of proof is on the state. And don't call it in stolen that's filing a false police report if you do that and just catching yourself an even worse charge. Would be better off saying you are trying to sell the bike and that you let someone test ride it if you are going to lie about it.
