He needs his ticket yanked and I'll bet his instructor has a meeting

That's the first reaction. However, a large part of his mistake is
probably inexperience. He _might_ be more careful next time; or he
might not. If it's due entirely to stupidity, though, a second chance
won't help.

He should have known what he was getting into. If he did, he was
being stupid, and probably shouldn't have a license. If he didn't,
someone has to find out how that knowledge managed to escape him in
his training, and how he got a license without having it.
