Question

my parents don't want to teach me how to drive.

i told them i would tell someone else to teach me how to drive.

they told me that they can sue whoever teaches me how to drive without their consent?

is this true?

Answer 1

Well if you have your learners licence and go with a proper learning to drive company with a driver who is accredited and they have there open licence i dont see the problem. I think its strange that they wouldnt want to teach you or have anyone else teach you but there is obviously a reason for it.  

I think it depends how old you are, but i was never asked for parental consent when i was 17 (i live in australia). I organised the lessons by myself. Have you established why they dont want you to drive?    

Answer 2

If you are a minor and if you cause an accident your parents may be sued. And your parents can sue whoever is teaching you to drive,.

Answer 3

sounds a bit rough, yes it could be if you have an acco n are injured they could blame the person whos car it is.  

Answer 4

this totally depends on you're age and whether the driver will insure you as a 2nd party driver. if you're old enough and they will insure you than no but if they dont or you aren't then yes they can
