This law exists in Florida as well. Similar at least. Reality is cops, down here at least, have a lot bigger things to respond to. I do think FHP tries to enforce it, but even they are stretched thin.

BTW it was a uninsured kid with no license. Using daddys car.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at, is that the damage to the car? If so it fortunately looks extremely minor and shouldnt be too costly or difficult to repair. Glad your wife wasn't hurt.

Yeah, I'm glad it's minor too. The bumper is permanently bulged up right in front of the hatch and there are grill impressions/scrapes on the bumper.

It'll likely take a new bumper to fix it, it just sucks that it happened on a car I haven't even had long enough to make a payment.

How's the little woman today, Ryan? The day after is usually pretty sore. I sure hope she's feeling okay. :-)

She's going in for another Chiropractic adjustment this morning, so I have a little baby duty coming up. :-)

It could have been a lot worse, so I'm thankful that everyone is safe.

That's a relief.
Hopefully Daddy will be putting the boots to that kid's ass today. I'd think he'd be pretty quick to pay for it being his kid put him in a real bad situation liability-wise, especially being your wife got banged up.
In PA we have to carry underinsured/uninsured motorist insurance for times like this. I think the insurance company pays the damage and then goes after Daddy.

I have uninsured motorist here too. The kid has no valid US identification (Citizen of Mexico) and only his dad's insurance. It's some tiny ass insurance company too, so I may just file it through mine and get them to sort out the financial aspects so I can get it fixed 'proper'.
