Your first sentence tells the tale, "A friend asks to drive your car". When you said yes then you accepted responsibility for whatever might happen. You could have said no.

I disagree. It's not like the guy begged to drive the car.

If I damage a freinds stuff, I pay for it. BUT........ that may not ever happen because I don't borrow stuff that I can't replace if I damage or ruin it. HOWEVER. I can't hold someone else to that standard. If I let them borrow it, I take the cance of it being damaged. If he or she insists on paying, I let them. I tend to go beyond to make things work though. |

For people who ask if they can drive my Camaro. I tell them. "If you have $40k cash you can drop into the cup holder. You can drive the car." This shuts them up. It's rude to ask to drive another person's car.

Alot of great responses from all of you which has made me think...and I thank you. A few key points...minus the beatings. He asked me to drive back from our destination. What was I going to say? No? Not like he has a history of accidents or abuse of his cars. I thought nothing of it. Would it be different if we were somewhere and I insisted/offered he drive? Absolutely. I would assume liability as it was an offer. I also agree that either way, the damage would be the same with same end result. Accidents do happen and it could have happened either way. New car, limited visibility, excitement...jubilation. There were alot of great points within all of your responses..humor as well. So I came to a conclusion. If he asks about the damage, I will tell him the truth. If he does not, I shall remain silent and not hold our friendship hostage. So, based on my resolution, what do you think?

I think if you can honestly do that (just let it go and not hold your friendship hostage), good for you!

How much room do you have in your backyard? Enough to bury a body? J/K He should have just said he would cover the repair costs from the start.
