Hello po, I'd like to ask for advice regarding the facts below:
Winson, 17 yo, drove our multicab without our permission at 1:30am in the morning. He hit a motorcycle with 2 passengers. The driver (owner of motorcyle) was settled na. the other passenger who had to undergo an operation for his fracture is demanding 90k from us. We counter-offered 60k total. No settlement was achieved during the preliminary investigation. They will just file a case of reckless imprudence. My questions:
1. What are the consequences to Winson, a minor? Will he be arrested? If so, can he be bailed out? Will he be imprisoned?
2. What are consequences to us who own the multicab? Can they eventually file a civil case to demand 90k?
3. How do we get the multicab which is now still in the custody of the police?
4. When will their cause of action prescribe? The incident happened last May19th. The final hearing (prelim investigation) is today Nov 10th.
Thank you very much!
