Reduce car theft to a fine only crime? According to the US Department of Transportation statistics 4,280 pedestrians were killed in 2010, there were an estimated 70,000 reported pedestrian injuries in 2010. Less than 1% of those injuries and fatalities involved pedestrians and highspeed police chases.. Car theft isnt just a matter of paper work and fines... According to the Department of Justice there are 49,000 completed carjackings that occur in the US each year and 96% of those result in physical injury. Since 1992 there have been over 10,000 car jackings resulting in death of the driver and/or the occupants. Seems car theft isnt such a subtle crime...

Most states have a law dealing with stolen cars.The second charge would be grand or petty theft.

I thought grand theft was anything over 500. I could be wrong though.

STEALING A SHITTY CAR WILL GET THE PERSON THE SAME JAIL TIME AS IF THE CAR IS A NICE ONE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE CHARGES WOULD BE GRAND THEFT.ASK A COP, HE WILL KNOW.

Guaranteed. This is because the prosecutor will want to throw maximum charges at the thief, if he is caught.

Yes, report as such. Then you may get a better car from insurance and such.
