If you leave your keys in your car, and somebody borrows it and kills someone, are you still guilty of murder? Of manslaughter? Should the police arrest & prosecute you, and ignore trying to find who did the crime, because they're certain it was done with your car, and since it was registered to you, you're responsible for its use?
Or should they just revoke your driver's license and insist that no car be registered at your household because of it? After all, that would teach you not to leave a car where someone could take it.
