Anonymous wrote:DS17 was in a fender bender after school. I’m not sure exactly what happened but he said the vehicle pulled in front of him at 4 way stop and he ran into them.

The driver was a young mom who got out of the car screaming she’d kill my son. Cops were called but they did exchange information so she has his name.

He said she kept threatening to “end him” and that if her baby was hurt she’d hunt him down.

I showed up after they had left to get baby checked out. But judging by the damage (next to none) on either car (son has pictures) I’m betting all is fine.

Police seemed super dismissive and talked him through filing with insurance but didn’t seem concerned about the woman’s behavior.

Should we be worried?


No, you should not be worried.

It was a terrible experience but it's over and she's gone.
The baby is fine; the mom will calm down.

I'm glad your kid didn't escalate the situation.

Work on the insurance and repair issues, and focus on the future.

Your kid needs to learn to drive more defensively.


This. Even if her kid wasn’t injured she may try to claim something and milk your insurance or sue for distress or something. Was your son issued a citation?

So file a police report against her. She's not allowed to utter threats.

What a horrible experience for your kid. I don’t think she’s actually going to try to kill your son, but I wouldn’t let her communicate with him either. She’d be talking to me if she needed anything, but I doubt you’ll hear from her directly.
