Well that is not what bothers me. He has also threatened to call the cops and get me for solicitation of a minor. I am 17 and i will be 18 in 2 1 and a half weeks.

Your bf isnt the problem at all here but the car is. I have a son 17 and two daughters 16 and 13, they can do nothing about me spend time with them talking to them and rasing them since birth. I also talk to people under the age of 18 almost every day and never got arrested yet, so what is that telling you? It should say this as long as you're not having anything sexual with anyone then you can spend time with anyone you like. Now the car is worst then you think it is cause you had an accident and just because he wait two weeks wont get you off the hook. He told you to take his car to the store and return it when your done. That mean he gave you permission to go to place then retun to place b. Let say on your way from place you went 20 miles somewhere else, that means you stole it cause you didnt give permission to go there. As a kid i saw this happen and the guy served years, but it wasnt from his father but a car dealership. They gave him permission to go and test drive it for a few iles, yet he went 50 to the next big city and stayed over night. He was giving permission but when he went futher. Then expected it call theift. Your father would have a hard time proven it.Thats your father now try to make rangments to cover the damanges.

Almost always a stolen car is reported in the first 24 hrs..your Dad calling the police and telling them 2 weeks later that you stole the car isn't going to stick.
However, you do have something to worry about when it comes to your boyfriend's age. It depends upon your state the legal of consenting to sex is 16-18.
Age of consent 16 (31): Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia
Age of consent 17 (8): Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, Texas
Age of consent 18 (12): Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, North Dakota, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming.
You may be turning to a legal adult but your boyfriend may still be classified as a minor. So yes, your dad could get you in trouble with the law when it comes to that. If you are breaking the law by being with a minor (even now at 17, when he is still 15) then you need to break up with him at the moment..just till he turns the legal age.

You keep dating your boyfriend is what you do. Just because your dad is acting like an immature douchebag, doesn't mean you have to stoop to that level.
