[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it doesn't matter if he clipped her with the window or the "body of the car", and i don't buy the "couldn't find a place to stop". You also don't know if she was hurt or not. She may have "turned away" (wrf?) in oain. Your son had a legal obligation - by virtue of his driver's license - to stop, inquire and exchange info. You are making too many excuses for him while not knowing all of the facts. We know your son is capable of hiding the facts by the fact he tried yo hide this incident from yiu. Yes, there may be a camera. Yes, hire an attorney[/quote]

OP isn’t making excuses. She never said her child couldn’t find a place to stop. She said he didn’t find a place to stop. She admitted that her son didn’t know if the victim was hurt. She punished her son. Give her a break. She’s just trying to figure out next steps in a bad situation and looking for advice. [/quote]

OP here. I’m not making excuses. Just figuring out how to navigate this situation. I’m well aware her account may be very different from his. [/quote]

Get a lawyer. If they're sending a letter it's highly likely there's some type of video evidence from a dashcam/Tesla or nearby security camera of your son hitting her and taking off versus just he said/she said.

[quote]He thought she was not hurt (but guess he wouldn’t know for sure) and turned away from him (but he’s not entirely sure). I suspect he panicked given there were cars backed up behind him wanting to leave. He did not find somewhere to stop and return to check on her and give his details.[/quote]

[b]Do better OP. He's already lied about the situation, "I don't remember mommy" and you assuming the best of intentions is not him taking ownership of this. Your son isn't 5yo or testifying to Congress.[/quote][/b]

This. You ARE making excuses for him by believing his side (daft, not believable) of the story when he's already hidden the fact if the accident from both you and law enforcement[/quote]
