Driver Arrested After Taking 1,000 Mile "Test Drive"

 

32-year-old Aleh Kot has been arrested near Janesville, Wisconsin after taking a 2010 Honda Accord for a 1,000 mile "test drive" which began at a Honda Dealer in Massachusetts the previous day.

The dealer who started out riding in the passenger seat took the opportunity to get out in slow traffic after Kot drove the vehicle at speeds as high as 125 mph.

Kot faces charges of driving a vehicle without the owner´s permission, speeding, and reckless driving in Wisconsin. Back in Massachusetts he is charged with assault and battery, car theft, kidnapping, and larceny.

  If  
 
i counted well then he faces seven charges, this is not a little number. I think in the future if anyone wants to take a "test drive" then has to deposit some money for it.

It´s not theft if you hand the keys over to someone. Also, how the hell does someone drive 1000 miles in such a short time?

  Can Drive and Is Theft  
 
Jakethemuss- What do you mean how does he drive 1,000 miles in a day? I have driven from Michigan to Massachusetts in one day, hell I did it several times. FActor in his known speeds were 100+ and it can be easily done from 1pm-4:30am.

Also it is in fact theft at the point the man did not return the keys and the salesman stepped out. It doesn´t matter if someone gives you the keys or not even if the guy didn´t leave the car. A person can be arrested for having another friend using it and not bringing it back on time. If anyone keeps a vehicle longer than it was loaned to them it is well within their rights to call it in stolen.
