    I don't think you have a great defense. The state can
    probably prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that you
    drove the vehicle to that location. However, if you have some
    story about how the vehicle arrived there, and how you
    intended to get transported somewhere else without driving
    then you might have a defense. Just like in a DUI case, the
    fact that the keys were not in the ignition, matter here. You
    also have a possible entrapment defense, but you would have to
    prove that you had no proclivity to drive the vehicle had they
    not asked you to.
