You say the driver is a boy. Does he have a license? Or was he driving a parents car? | Yeah he was arrested then charged and realsed on bail!!! i would have locked him up and through away the key.
I know i have only been driving for 3 and 3/4 years but he had only just passed his test a couple of months ago the police man said. so he does have a license but why drink and drive just once you pass your test? or ever for that case. The only bit of joy i get out of this is that it was his car and it was only 2 years old so quite new and expense (about 7k) and its now on the way to the scrap heap!  serves him right but only thing is mine is also on the way to the scrap heap and its a newish car too (bout 6k).
But as i saw as long as baby fine i couldnt care less about my car or the worth you cant put a price on my baby's life  |

Went shopping last night about 7 got bean lots of new things me and OH were driving home( me driving) going about 30 when some f#!#er decides to pull out without looking and we have a head on smash. My whole engine in caved in to where me and my OH is sitting and air bag inflated and cant get out. Anyway i go to hospital in ambulance, Luckily i only have whiplash friction burns and internal bruising. But as i said to my nurse i dont care about me check baby.
Well takes them till 12 at night to get someone down as my whole belly swollen through bruising they couldnt even feel my uterus. To not find a heartbeat with the dopper and they then tell me no-one available to scan me till 6am this morning. So there i am sat in the A&E ward on my own as my OH is taken for a x-ray and for the police to walk in and tell me the other driver (a 17 year old lad) was f#!#ing DRUNK!!!
5 times over the limit!!!!!
So here i am sitting in agony worrying about my baby's life OH somewhere getting x-rayed all because this lad decided he needed Fags and couldnt be bothered walking the shop!!!!
Well come 6am this morning i didnt know what to do i was convinced that was it bean was gone. But when they scanned there HE appreared on the screen wriggling around and with a strong heartbeat  and i found out it is a HE. Team Blue.
Anyway i got to leave the hospital today at 12pm ish and told complete bed rest for a week. Im completely black and blue. Cuts all over my face etc. My OH has a broken collar bone whiplash and broken arm. BUT all we care about is bean is ok. But as they had to point out the next 72 hours is important....so please please please keep your fingers crossed!
But as for everything else my car gone completely, this lad was arrested charged but realsed on bail?!?!?! his insurance paying for everything but thats not the point....HOW COULD THEY LET HIM GO AFTER BEING DRUNK AND NEARLY KILLING MY UNBORN CHILD?!?!?
So now i say shoot them all everyone that drinks and drives and endangers others shouldnt be aloud out. Sorry for my rant but would the police be more happy if my baby died??? then would be not be allowed to walk the street!! anyway best try get some sleep been a busy night for me and bean and of course OH.
Em | How terrible no matter what happens these days there seems to be some way of getting away with it, it's infuriating not even old enough to be drinking and not only that but driving whilst drinking some people don't deserve to be alive so i agree lets shoot them all!    Hope you feel better after some well deserved rest and congratulations on your blue bump x |

| How awful! So sorry this has happened to you and thank goodness you are all OK.
Hopefully the stupid boy will be so shaken by what he's done he'll never get behind a wheel again. Or, even better, he won't be allowed to. | | | | Status: Offline

| Gosh, this is awful.
I'm glad you are all okay (apart from broken bones and bruises) I'm sure your LO is going to be fine.
Some people are so irresponsible. They should be made to meet their victims face-to-face and apologise.
Terrible.
You take care and get plenty of rest.
