[quote=Anonymous]Sadly, I have experience with this. If your mom is not speeding or under the influence, criminal charges are unlikely. But the injured party or their family can bring a civil suit for damages and most likely would do so. If it’s beyond the limits of their insurance, then personal assets, including their home, are at risk. Then there’s the emotional impact for driver and spouse of having been in a fatal or injurious accident, and the anxiety of a legal case that drags on for years. It’s hard to have these conversations—good luck. [/quote]
