Problem Solved: Should I call the police

[travisray2004]

Hello everyone,

I currently had and have trouble with my younger brother taking advantage of using my vehicles with out my permission. He currently does not have a job, and don't think he is motivated in getting one. He is using the car for pleasure usage. THIS ISN'T ABOUT DRIVING IT AND WASTING GAS. This is about the respect of my wished to wait to hear from me before driving it. I currently have a policy for him to use my vehicle. It is.

1. Ask three days in advance
2. Answer cell phone if called
3. Return it better then what it was ( Gas,oil, maintenance and dents and dings)
4. Be responsible. No recklessness
5. Return keys when done with it

I am not being an @ss about it. Or charging him for it, though i should, I might make enough to buy another car. Its not that I dont want him to drive it, I would like to know when I could use it if I was to come in. That, and its to make him look for another job, so he doesnt have to ask for it. BTW he wants to buy it from me. I would sell it to him for $1500, $100 a paycheck. I know that might be alot but its easier then trying to get a loan.


Solution:
Sold Car to a mexican for $200

Does he have insurance?

Your rules are fine, but calling the cops would be overboard.

Just take/hide the keys and let him fend for himself.

This.

And finally, the police are not your mother. They're not there to settle petty disputes between siblings. They're there to protect people. If he drives off and doesn't come back and won't answer his phone, you can still call them to say the car has been stolen and you know who took it. But if he's just taking it without your permission then you're going to have to come up with a better way of keeping him from doing that. Lock your keys up or something.

This.

I have asked him time and time again to return the keys and he has, pissed off but did.
When I mean return the keys, I mean my mom holds them, so he is taking them w/o even asking her. I know its bad to leave it to someone else, but I am not home to hold them.

STEALS THEM? As in, repeatedly?

Call the cops. It's the only way he's going to learn.

stop being such a pussy.

take the keys, keep them where he cant find them (ie: ON YOU) and tell him to grow up or walk. what a lousy excuse....you give them to your mother? you keep them. you cant be so hard up for space that you cant keep your own keys on you.

how old are you two anyway?

 

[Shadow Conception]

Buy him a car and show it to him. Then, blow it up right in front of his face.

My god, how will you survive in the real world if you can't secure your own car keys?

Put a steering Wheel lock, lock the door, hide your keys inside an old pair of shoes

 

[buck]

This sounds like high school shit.

Beat the shit out of him, he will learn from that. Don't call the cops unless you want to end your relationship with him.

Old enough to know better then this. I hate living on the road, but pays well. Im 23 hes 18.

 

[AstroManLuca]

Um, PUT THE FUCKING KEYS IN YOUR FUCKING POCKET SO HE CAN'T TAKE THEM.

Are you retarded?

Nope not retarted just stupid. I mean hes just hard headed, and visits this forum alot so, I wanted to see if he crosses this thread.

 

[Whisper]

I fail to see, based on what's been said in the thread thus far, why you can't simply take the keys from your mother once they've been returned. Is she in another state, or in an area that's far away/difficult to get to? If so, ask her to ship them to you, and offer to pay her back.

That, and remove him from your insurance policy. Make the return of insurance coverage contingent upon his finding, and keeping, a job.

Given that your brother is 18, is he still in high school? If not, is he planning on going to college, or is he just bumming around the house, unsure of what he wants to do?

you did brotherhood wrong. keep your keys on you, and tell him he can ride a bike.

bonus: buy him a cheap, girlie bike.

 

[Vinfinite]

uh hide the keys better? or keep it on yourself? Seriously, you have to ask the internet how to take care of your keys?

SERIOUSLY?

How passive can you be?

Man up and take control of the situation...

 

[Bryophyte]

What's his AT handle?

Why is your car stored at your mother's house? Store it elsewhere if you don't want him to mess with it while you're away.

 

[JulesMaximus]

How the hell did he get the keys in the first place?

Um, do you want your brother arrested for grand theft auto?
