Actual senario: My friend A drove friend B's father car(friend B lie to his father that friend A got license) to come fetch me and friend C(both of us got license) to go supper, then got into an accident halfway there and the victim reported the accident to the TP. Will me and friend C with license get into trouble for letting a friend without license to drive the car?
Then friend A want to me lie to the TP by saying:
All of us meet at friend A house and walk to friend B house to collect the car key and I drive them to somewhere and friend A say he got license and want to test out his driving after passing his license. So I pass friend A the key and he drive not long and the victim switch lane without any signal and jammed brake because he is going to miss his condo entrance and thus the accident occur.
What should I do? And what are the penalties for my friends.

A man was sentenced to nine weeks' jail on Wednesday for offering his nephew money and a job for taking the rap on his behalf for a driving offence.
Mohd Yusof Mohd Ali, 58, was driving a car along Jurong West Street 75 without a licence on Nov 8, 2009 when he was involved in an accident. He pleaded guilty to the driving offence as well as to offering $1,000 and a job to his nephew in return for his nephew lying to the police that he was the driver of the car at the time, reports The Straits Times.
This was the fifth time that Yusof had driven without a valid licence. District Judge Marvin Bay imposed the jail term and banned him from driving for five years.
The court heard that he settled the traffic accident by paying off the other party $300 when their vehicles were involved in the accident at the junction of Jurong West Street 75 and Jurong West Street 73. Later that month, he told his nephew, Muhammad Norzaid Muhammad Yazid Johari, then 24, about the accident, and that he had been driving without a Class 3 licence. He asked Norzaid to lie that the latter was driving the car at the time him to shield him from criminal liability. He promised to pay him $1,000 and offered him help to get a job, if everything went well.
Both men went to the Traffic Police and gave false statements.
Norzaid was fined $4,000 earlier this year for giving a false statement to the police.
Yusof, whose sentence was deferred until Nov 15, could have been jailed for up to seven years and/or fined for perverting the course of justice.

Just speak out the truth. The police will sort of know if you're lying.
You can never win this case...unless your name is Kaya Waffles or Peanut Butter Waffles.
