A ticket for driving without a license.

You could have an accident, the police will be called and you won't have drivers license. Same thing if you get pulled over for any driving infraction. Driving without a license, where I live, is an automatic 30 day impound and a visit to the judge.

A license is issued to a person who can prove they know the traffic laws, are able to drive safely, have proper auto insurance, etc. etc.
The presumption is that you may know how to drive the vehicle, but you do not know the rules, do not have good reflexes, do not know how to do it right.
The worst that could happen is you could kill someone, kill your friend, kill someone you love.
Killing yourself is not so bad.
Living the rest of your life with the knowledge that you spent a foolish afternoon with a friend, in ignorance of traffic rules, leading to the death of someone you care about ... that will be in your mind your whole life ... your conscience will never let you forget it.
What the law does to you because you killed someone, that's another story. What the family of the dead people have to say about this, and sue you for all you have ... that also not so bad.

The worst thing that could happen is you could get in an accident and kill your friend.
If I was your father I would not allow you to drive anyone around. It's OK for you to drive alone and to learn on these back roads, but why risk the life of a friend when you aren't legally old enough to get behind the wheel.
(well you asked for WORST and I can't think of anything that could be worse than that)

You could be arrested for operating without a license, operating uninsured, and operating an unregistered vehicle. The truck could be impounded -- automatic 30 days in CA. And you could lose your right to operate until your 18th or 21st birthday.
If you're in an accident, your parents' could lose everything that they own -- home, property, cars, money, etc. since your uninsured and they'll have to pay the damages out of their pockets.
That sounds so not worth it to me, but it's your wallet and right to drive.

Two of the many things that could happen are someone could get hurt because you aren't experienced enough to handle some of the quick maneuvers necessary AND the authorities can tick you, and put your getting a drivers license out of reach for a year or more, it depends; not a good decision.

An uninsured, unregistered, beat up family pick-up driven by an inexperienced 15 year old with no license? Just don't do it you could seriously screw up your life or the lives of other drivers if, god forbid, something goes wrong. It is never worth it - and the cops will have no mercy on you if they catch you.

You could be arrested for driving without a license. The court will probably then forbid you from getting a license until you're 21.

One word...Liability....if something goes wrong your parents are responsible for everything. Okay, now you're driving carefully, but some drunk driver hits you, who's at fault? Neither one of you should be on the road... Just wait...you'll drive legally in barely any time.

The worst thing that could happen is you would wreck and kill your friend and not yourself. Forever is a long time to have that on your conscience.
