I think you should hand yourself in to the police for driving without owner's consent and without insurance. Then at least you have come clean and she does not have to make the decision to turn you in herself.

Were you insured to drive the car?

No. I have no insurance whatsoever.

You can be thankful that no-one was hurt...

But surely that'll land me in heaps of trouble?

Assuming this isn't a troll....

Start saving you owe your sister a car.

Second, start hoping/praying etc she doesn't turn you over to the cops although that might actually do you some good.

Sorry but there isn't much more you can do. I assume if you are insured on the car (unlikely as she hadn't said you could use it) then you would only be third party and not sure why your sister should have years of jacked up premiums due to the selfish actions of someone else.

5t.

Edit not insured so with any luck this might make you grow up a bit. I'd have you down the cop shop for TWOC.

Yes, I had a few passengers who all thanked me for not killing them. Very lucky, didn't even thought I had hot anything till I got out and the wheel was on its side.

Pay-up and look sweet. Appeal to her better judgement but if not, take what comes to you and get on with your life.

If the worst happens, it won't be a whole lot of trouble. If your sister will not press charges, TWOCing is a fairly lowly offence that is unlikely to go beyond a fine for a first offender. The insurance might well be a similar fine with points and I don't fancy your chances of getting any kind of affordable insurance for a good few years.

Yes, that's the idea when people break the law.
