The owner of a vehicle is liable to pay compensation for the accident if the vehicle is driven by a minor.
It was the duty of the vehicle-owner to ensure that it was not misused or used in contravention of the rules.
Fining parents and sending them to jail can only happen in extreme conditions that to with clear instructions from the court.
