[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 147627"] When I talked to the paramedic and asked him how bad it was he said there was 'some front end damage' and I thought he said the airbags did NOT deploy, but I heard him wrong as they did in fact deploy. So, I was expecting to drive up onto a fender bender. I think my eyes about came out of my head when I saw friend's car sideways in the road and the driver front side just all smashed to heck. The driver's door wouldn't open. So, then I noticed the boys and made a beeline over to them, but couldn't find easy child. I asked them where easy child was and they said he was in the back of the cop car. I asked them why as I was walking over there (I thought maybe he was being arrested and my heart dropped), not even noticing the cop standing right there, and the cop snapped, "Because that's where I told him to sit." I was so taken back by his tone that I couldn't even respond. I just realized tonight that he probably didn't realize I was the mom. (Afterall, I had just gotten my hair done and put on makeup for the first time this year. LOL) Once he made that connection, he chilled out. Was as nice as could be on the phone tonight. However, he shouldn't have been treating easy child that way to begin with - even if he had been at fault. He's a kid who was involved in an accident. Anyone is bound to be scared and freaking out in that scenario...especially a kid. And everyone on the scene said easy child did nothing to warrant the behavior from the cop. I am proud of the way easy child handled himself. He answered all questions honestly. He wrote out his statement and it was just the facts. I would have been a babbling idiot. We just got our new proof of insurance cards last week and easy child read something on there that said don't admit responsibility - which is why his statement read basically that he crested the hill, saw the car, slammed on the breaks and jerked to the left, the car slid. Period. Nothing about impact. I've never read those things from the insurance company. I just take my card and throw the rest away. Pretty smart kid. No matter, though, as I told easy child if it had been me driving instead I would have hit him, too. There was just no time to stop. Thanks for the hugs. I've definitely been on an adrenaline rush all day. easy child has been pretty subdued. Poor guy. [/QUOTE]
