waltappel 1 #1 August 7, 2006 ...maybe they should give it honorable mention. Whoops!!!!!! http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,207254,00.html Quote New Jersey Teen Accidentally Kills Mother During Driving Lesson Monday, August 07, 2006 FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP, N.J. — Police in Gloucester County's Franklin Township said Monday there will be no underage-driving charges for a 15-year-old girl who accidentally ran over her mother during a driving lesson, killing her. Because the accident took place on private property, police said there will be no prosecution. Police said the girl's mother — 39-year-old Tina Rowe — was teaching her how to parallel park at about 3:30 p.m. Saturday when the girl backed the car over her. It's believed the girl may have hit the gas pedal instead of the brake. Rowe was pinned under the 1997 Chevy Cavalier. Emergency crews arrived to get the car off her, but Rowe was pronounced dead at the scene. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gforce 0 #13 August 7, 2006 What about life insurance??? The worst people in the world to teach driving are the parents. Think back to when you were learning to drive. Didn't the parents add another layer of stress? Yes. This is the Darwin Award DEFINED. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was learning bootlegs and J turns before i had my license.. which got me out of all sorts of (parental at least) trouble later on..
