What a day

[Guest]

Any parents nightmare , no matter how much we try to teach them about road safety kids will be kids , in one ear out the other , glad your lad is on the mend, wish him well from all the boys and girls on here,

as for the driver she should be nicked for leaving the scene , although she left her details who`s to say she had not had a drink , I think the police messed up big time on this

Thanks for all the well wishes, he's back home now, no sports for 3 weeks, that won't bother him he doesn't like PE anyway, but no computer games or fast moving films for a while, that's really going to bother him it's his birthday on Saturday and he's getting the new call of duty game for the xbox, he should be ok for an hour by then.

Glad to hear that the lads fine. I hope you gave him a pay rise! "Did the parcels get sent"? Got to love that!

The Driver, be it man or woman has broken the law. Leaving the scene of an accident where personal injury is incurred is a punishable offence. As some one else pointed out, they could of been under the influence.

They could also of been speeding. One can assume that the road was in a built up area if it was out side the post office. 30mph if I recall. If you canr stop a car these days from 30mph it or you should not be on the road!!!

OK She could, as has also been pointed out been in shock. I can imagine that your wife had plenty of other things on her mind but some one there should of stopped them trying to drive off.

I'll put the lawer back in his box now and just say this. Your boss sounds a right arse.

Oh no, the new CoD and no video gaming for a while, that is just torture, as if the lad has not been through enough........:darn:

Because the woman left her details (she wasn't going to until my wife asked) she hasn't broken any law, she has complied with it so the police have told us.

Have to say that it does seem odd. If she had stayed there she would have been given a breathalyser as a matter of routine I would have thought.

[Guest]

Or the in this case the Police should have paid her a visit straight away at home and carried out a test there and then, that is normal procedeure for any type of RTA, they are like your boss a total ass. And so is mine by the way. The type of thing he would have come out with.

Wishing your son a speedy recovery.

Glad to hear that the kid is ok, thanks to protection from above things didn't turn out worse. Great kid with great sense of responsibility, he deserves a medal! Now what that lady did makes me think how people behave nowadays, like they don't care about others. Putting all the legal matters aside, even though she didn't commit any offence she could still have stopped to offer some assistance, for decency sake. Is it possible that human beings are becoming less human nowadays?

Best wishes to you,
