there's a lot of bs in this thread. Here is what is actually going to happen:
1. driver has already been charged with dangerous driving causing death x2, crim neg etc.
2. If he is convicted of any of these which is quite likely, his (parents) insurance company will pay out the victims/family but then can turn around and sue the driver AND/OR the owner of the car = parent. This is because we cannot get insurance for criminal acts, only for carelessness under HTA which is not the charge.
So the parents are indeed properly fucked.
They won't
In cases like this they usually throw book at him and he pleads down with Crown
There is a 0% chance he will be convicted of everything they charged him with
Also 0% chance it will effect parents
Kid will (probably) lose license (demerit points) and come off insurance policy
Only effect is they may decline to insure him later on (or it costs more)
The Parental Responsibility Act does allow them to sue parents of the driver however since a minor can not be sued for something like this
It is up to parents to prove they acted responsible (which I think they will; kid is young so prob enrolled in drivers ed etc)
