We see it in the movies all the time! Valet driver or car wash worker drives the customers car in for service or a wash, but then takes the car for a drive! Well this actually happened in London.

The car wash worker took a customers Mercedes-Benz for a joyride. It was a lengthy joyride too! A total of 90 minutes! While driving around, he swerved to avoid a mouse he says and crashed the Mercedes-Benz!

The workers license was revoked for 12 months. Also out of a job. And almost certain the car wash footed the bill for a new car or the repairs.
