Last time I checked, and correct me if I'm wrong (because I KNOW you Americans and your laws are far loopier than ours), but when someone takes a car that belongs to another person WITHOUT their knowledge or permission, that is considered THEFT. Period. Add in the fact that a FOURTEEN YEAR OLD was driving (who can't even get a learner's at that age I bet) at VERY high speeds (3 times the fucking speedlimit?!?!?!), and you just have a whole situation of NOT GOOD.
As for blame, yeah, you can blame someone. You can blame the fucking kids for being retarded. I'm sorry your friends got hurt...I really am. But maybe this'll wake them up and make them realize that you can't do shit like this and get away with it. They'll all be lucky if they don't get charged with Grand Theft Auto or Theft Over $5000 (or whatever you guys call it down there).
I hope your friends get better, but I also hope this wakes them up to a little dose of reality.
