Dilemma - my 16-year old

[Rev]

My bet is that he will get off with having to take a defensive driving class, and that will end the legal aspect.

I know that I'm in the minority here as to opinions. From what I've heard so far, Mustang_289's son is an excellent example of a responsible teenager. I think he learned a lot from what happened, and will actually benefit from the experience (not that we want accidents).

I believe he will learn more from what actually happened than he ever would from punitive actions (some seem extreme to me, selling the car,etc.).

I've already said most of that before. All I can really say, is that both my boys turned out well without me playing the excessive authoritarian role.
