Given that Hogwarts didn't expel the Marauders who, you know, endangered another student's life, what made Snape, of all people, think that Harry would get expelled for flying a car? Are the outside-Hogwarts-magic restrictions really that much more serious?
You're trying to apply logic to the HP-verse. Stop now before you hurt yourself.
PoA is my favorite HP novel, but it's also the one where the climax includes the adult characters unraveling thirteen-year-old misunderstandings and deceptions. That sort of thing is a favorite plot device of mine, so I may have read the series after that point for entirely the wrong plot.
