She’s Not Letting Her Younger Sister Drive Her Car Because She Got Into Two Accidents And Might Get Her License Revoked
A long time ago, this woman was given her grandma’s car to use for work since her grandma doesn’t drive anymore.
And ever since then, her mom has helped her out by paying for the car insurance– which she realizes technically makes the vehicle her mom’s car, too.
But while she’s an experienced driver, her little sister only got a driver’s license two months ago. And within just the past three weeks, her sister has gotten into two car accidents– both of which were her sister’s fault.
According to her, the most recent car accident was pretty serious, too, since both cars involved needed major repairs afterward.
“If my sister’s unlucky, she will maybe even get her license revoked because of the last one, but the other party decided not to press charges for now,” she revealed.
Anyway, the latest accident has left her mom’s car in the auto repair shop for the next couple of weeks.
And since her sister usually used her mom’s car to drive to music lessons, her sister now doesn’t have a mode of transportation.
That’s why her mom recently suggested that her sister just drive her car there and back. However, she was far from okay with that and told her mom, “Absolutely not.”
First of all, she relies on her car and needs it every day. More importantly, she’s also seriously concerned that her sister will get into yet another accident.

“Mind you, I’ve cared for that car as if it were my child,” she added.
“I need it to get to work, and I literally cannot afford to have it totaled for work reasons.”
But while that might sound reasonable, given everything that’s happened, her mom and sister don’t understand her perspective. Instead, they’re actually angry with her, claiming that she is painting her sister in a negative light by “just assuming” that her sister will get into another accident.
On top of that, her mom believes that her sister has obviously “learned her lesson.” Quite frankly, though, she believes that it might be for the best if her sister lost her license.
“This time, my sister crashed into a car that she didn’t notice. But we are living next to a school, and I’m seriously concerned what else she might not ‘notice,'” she explained.
Still, she realizes that’s a completely separate concern, and right now, the issue at hand is that she simply doesn’t want her sister driving her car.
But with both her mom and sister now upset with her, she can’t help but wonder if refusing to let her sister use her car is really a jerky thing to do.
Does it sound like her sister should even be driving after the two accidents? Can you understand why she doesn’t want to put her car at risk? What would you do in this situation?
