Hi Peter! Thanks for the article. Can you comment on the legal situation, in light of this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=united893 https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=united893 It's hard to see how this situation can't lead to charges. Not returning a rental car is grand theft[1], at least in CA; this situation isn't dissimilar. Specifically, see [2]: "voluntary parting" is just insurance lingo, from the legal standpoint, it's simply theft. Have you sought legal advice on the matter? The police is not an impartial source here, nor the most qualified.
