My mom had a scary experience today

My mom was taking a coworker home this morning, had just dropped off my 4 year old nephew to preschool and she had picked up my one year old niece because my sister had a garage sale. The car in front of my mom turned on their left turn signal to turn into their driveway. My mom looks in the rearview mirror and sees a car driving as fast as possible and not planning to slow down. She said it happened so fast but the car ended up driving off the side of the road and into someones yard. My mom said the car ran over these huge cross ties and lifted up in the air really high and the bumper and other parts of the car was just flying everywhere. The car was smoking and everything. She said there was no doubt that the car was totaled. The driver of the car was okay. My mom is a much better person than I would have been because I would have called the police for wreckless driving and I would have went ape shit on her ass.  That car could have easily rearended them going as such a high speed. There is no telling what the outcome could have been but she doesn't think it would have been good. When she told me this I started to cry because Christian often rides with her and I just installed his new convertible seat on Monday. I just explained that it's always important to make sure the kids are in their car seats properly and that things like that are why I plan to RF for awhile. I often get comments about it being silly and how his legs are going to be cramped.

Oh my goodness, I can't believe she didn't call the cops on him. Did he do much damage to the lawn he ran onto? I hope the owners were home and didn't get a nasty surprise when they got home.

I'm so glad everyone was okay; that could have so easily been tragic.
