Curious. What consequences do you really think the parents can mete out?
Instilling expectations for starters. Keeping kids off the street. Cutting off cell phone access. Cutting off money. Doing refused class work at home. There’s plenty a parent can do if they start early. Most parents claim they have good kids. When I was assaulted by one after asking for help for months the mom said she was shocked and didn’t know why he would do such a thing. I’ve heard from people who know the family he’s been arrested multiple times already and dropped out of middle school.

Well, if parents and teachers were doing their job, kids would have sense of civility, morality and personal responsibility for their present and future. There wouldn't be any need of consequences.

The carjacker is an eco-hero. He should be celebrated.

Wait, what? You are glad you don't have sidewalks in your neighborhood because 12 year olds might use bicycles to carjack people? Sidewalks contribute to carjackings?
That is some Grade A car-brained idiocy. Thanks for the laugh.
Good luck biking to my neighborhood.
If it's not safe for bicycling it sounds like a shitty place where I wouldn't want to live.

Why do minors have to pay for BikeShare bicycles? They should be free to encourage bicycling in the next generation.
And encouraging car jacking.

Well how are they out of control if there are no rules? They seem to be acting they way you all want them to or expect them to act.
